We had a light frost a couple nights ago, so I potted up the geraniums, begonias, coleus, asparagus fern, and impatiens. However, temperatures have returned to the seventies during the day and forties at night, so I brought many of the plants back outside on the deck to enjoy the sunshine. This weather is just wonderful.
Meanwhile, the marigolds, petunias, mums, delphiniums, calendula, and cosmos in the garden are enjoying this weather as much as I am.

What gorgeous flowers! I often peek in during the day just to look at them and your sunsets!
Oh Wow! What flowers.
Thank you for your visit. I look forward to getting to know you. What adorable children you have.
My brother in law was over here on a visa, well he got a good 20 years off that visa no problem, until 911. It is to bad he did not apply for citizenship years ago. He worked hard and now is a very successful business man. Well he got a life of plenty out of the U.S.A.
I really love my country. :)
cynthia,
You are most welcome any time. That is a wonderful compliment.
donetta,
Thanks for stopping by. Your story is incredible. I have recently written about a child who was on my caseload when I was a child protection caseworker. She suffered abuse similar to what you endured, but she has not turned out like you. You are an incredible inspiration. The title of my post was "What Goes Around Comes Around".
My mother and her sisters got in trouble while attending church because when "Bringing In The Sheaves" would be played they inserted their family name so the song became "Bringing In The Shields".
She would love viewing your flowers.
You're making me awfully wistful with these photos. It will be a long time here before I can even come close to your bit of green heaven. It is just, just beautiful!
You have a very colorful display. Down here in SC most of my flowering annual plants melted in the heat and humidity long ago. The coleus and impatiens are still hanging in there and will be kept over the winter.
But one advantage of my subtropical climate are my citrus trees. The Lemons look like a particularly good crop this year.
mred,
Sometimes we need to sing softly so no one will know what we are saying!
lin,
Thank you, but I know you live in the beautiful state of New Mexico. I lived in Durango for thirteen years, and made many trips to Albuquerque and Sante Fe, loving every mile of the journey.
mike,
That just proves that every area has its disadvantages and advantages. I do have four peach trees, though, and the fruit is/was delicious! Thanks for stopping by.
