Daylilies

 
Hello Everyone!
 
 I hope you are having a wonderful July! This week we have had two cousins visiting, which has been an adventurous time for all! Tonight we are camping by our pond in our new pop-up! S'mores, kayaking, fishing, campfire, picnic, lightning bug catching, and more planned for the evening. First, I wanted to show you some of my daylily blooms as they are starting to show off nicely.

 
I grabbed a photo of my new hen and chick container as it is an old handwashing bowl from my Nanny and Pop's garden. As a child, we pumped water from a hand pump into the bowl and there was always a towel and bar of soap nearby.  I am pleased to have it in my garden as it reminds me of wonderful grandparents!
 
We now have eight ducks! They are so much fun to watch. As you can see, birds of a feather stick together....

Happy Summer Days !!
Thanks for visiting,
