Well Summer is here on the Northern Rivers of NSW Australia and I care not what the news says about it being spring as the temps are far too high for this time of year, which means we have by-passed spring all together. It is going to be a LONG HOT summer at my place.
The garden is in full bloom and driving in this area is wonderful with all the colour in people gardens. I do have to amit that even weeds here have lots of colour lol.
It is a pleasure sitting outside in the mornings with a cup of tea.
Our Dianna is back to renovating her house, I wonder why we all come to a full stop on doing any repairs over the winter and then tax ourselves in the spring with all that needs doing. I am having an inside laundry put into my place which is a big project and Dianna is hoping to have a deck built at the back of her place which will look just beautiful and I am hoping to photograph that work in progress if it gets underway. We would love photos of your homes and gardens so download and post away guys and for those who live in the UK and the USA feel fee to load photos of your coming winter as we never get snow here on the coast.
here are two photos I took this morning while having a quiet tea outside and at 8am the day is well underway here.





Cheers

Andama your garden looks lovely and i do totally agree with you about the fact it is deffinately summer and we missed spring lol how ever the hayfever has still caught me.

OH NO !!!!!!! Hay fever, god I forgot all about that and why has it not hit me yet this year lol.
You may notice I am a gardener which is cute really as I will spend hours in the garden and never seem to notice that the house is falling into total disaray. I guess I only come inside when it is to dark to be outside and by then the day has been long enough that I wouldnt care if the house feel down lol.
I love going to Dianna's house as that place shines even with the number of people she has there at any given time. I just dont get how she can keep the place so clean and tidy with her entire family there all the time and I only have three dogs yet my place looks like I rent rooms to football teams .
Thanks for the comments on the garden.

ahh your so lucky it hasn't got you lol.
Oh our house is a bit like that at the moment stuff everywhere lol I'm not the best gardener I wish i was but yeah maybe I don't have the patients. my mum loves her garden but hasn't been able to do much in it for awhile so that is in disaray as well

I think i am the worlds worst gardner, i only ever mow the lawn, whipper snip and have 6 large pots for my vegies. *giggles*
