the remaking of a kitchen

our neighbor diane invited me to go to their wisconsin vacation cabin for a few days and i was able to catch her taking some photos. she is a pro and it was fun to surprise her with some shots of herself. the second and third photos were on the walk we took on our first day there. the others on our walk in the woods. both were great experiences and the scenery and fall colors were awe inspiring.

diane came to the door today with a lovely give away. she had purchased a couple of flats of annuals and planted them everywhere she could and still had some leftovers. she brought me the remainders which saved me the time of running to the store to get some colorful annuals to fill in some of the beds. i put the fuschia, gold and orange celosia in the front beds where they matched some of the moss roses already there. the little purple posies, ageratums, are planted along the front of the hosta glade. up close they look great, at a distance they seem a bit lost. hopefully they will get fuller and taller and add something to the mass of green back there. i'm counting on that!
the tomatoes finally are looking like they should and standing proud in their cages. they are loaded with blossoms but i can't see any fruit as yet. the cukes look healthy but have a long ways to go!
thanks diane!!
