gifts of August






the heat and sun of August coaxes forth flowers, an endless variety of form and colour










plants and trees bear fruit



August gifts us with so much...warm winds, a barley moon, cooler evenings, needing a quilt, watermelon, sunflowers, peach pie, stacks of fluffy clouds, the smell of second cut hay, those first ripe tomatoes, sweet corn...

 




meadows are filled with wildflowers, different grasses, clover

                     




and the garden harvest begins




What were your favourite moments of this month?


farewell  August; welcome September...
