Monday is here and I hope you have had some rain as we are in the 100's this week.
Look at the beauty all around. Are you still seeing butterflies fluttering around the blooms of your flowers?
Sometimes you have to look real hard to see what is right in your hand.
It is easy to spot what is obvious. God wants you to see everything that he made as beautiful and to love everything and everyone.
By this time next month, we will be seeing signs of fall all around us. The colors will change but the beauty will still surround us.
I have been sitting on the patio for almost 2 hours. I have seen Doves, Cardinals, Mockingbirds, Starlings and all kinds of small birds. I have had bees, butterflies, wasps, and more on the flowers right next to me. I have seen hummingbirds at the orange Lantana, pink Hoya, and red Turks Cap. They come to the feeder and then within 2' of my face looking at me. A slight breeze just started after feeling the warm sun on my face. Come join me please.

Welcome to the last day of July and another wacky Wednesday!
I know this next one isn't very funny and you may not even understand it but if you have grandchildren or great grandchildren you know there is a generation gap of some kind going on today.
Happy Tuesday to you! Do you have a hummingbird feeder to watch the hummingbirds?
This is one of my females. I call the colorful ones males and the plain one females. Usually when we are sitting on the patio, we hear them even before we see the motion of them coming to the feeders.
I would be so excited if I ever saw one feeding babies, or even saw a nest. One of my females is much smaller than the one in my picture.
I only have one thornless Cactus plant in a pot and it is not blooming, but my hummingbirds love the red blooms on our Turk's Cap plants.
So if you don't have any hummingbirds coming around, find a Turk's Cap plant because they love it.
Or you can just come on over anytime. The garage door will open and we will be there waiting to invite you in with lots of tail wagging ...
As we start this new week, Mother Nature has decided to remind us that Summer is here in full swing.
We had almost 2 weeks with a chance of rain, clouds and cooler temperatures. While we did not get much rain, areas around us did.
Before the middle of August, Texas children will all be back in school and out of the heatwave coming our way.
So as our temperatures go back into the 100's, we give thanks to Mother Nature taking a vacation this year.
While our kids will all be back in air conditioned rooms, let us not forget the firefighters from Canada, Oregon, California and all over fighting big fires, trying to save homes, churches, and business, animals and land.
