As always, your flowers Addy are just breath takingly beautiful! Do you get many people walking by to enjoy the pretty flowers? I wish I had a white lotus, or just wish my lillys would bloom!! I think I don't get enough sun for my water lillys to bloom?

They do like sun, mine get all day sun. same with the lotus.

Nobody sees my pond or flowers, colleen, it is in the back of my yard, we are at the end of a small rural neighborhood. Is is mainly for our enjoyment. I share pictures here and with some friends ow it would never be seen.
My pond and flowers face woods and corn fields.

I finally have a dahlia bloom that looks big enough to be dinnerplate size. 2013-07-15 001.JPG2013-07-15 005.JPG

They went around a big storm, added 1hour or so to the flight, had a twitchy moaning, bumping into me constantly seated next to me..................Glad we didn't go through the storm, but why did he have to sit next to me. plenty of empty seats..........geez. I didn't move since would have to leave honey there, no two seats together.

I did the lean into a little, he would move over give me a few moments of peace then right back to bumping into me. I am claustrophobic, almost had a panic attack, finally told honey I had to lean into him to get away from the guy. I can't stand being touched by strangers, constantly like that. The seat started to close in on me, not fun at all.

but we made it home and landed........

Doesn't sound like you had a nice trip home on that plane at all. You are home now safe and sound and don't ever have to sit next to that guy again,knock on wood! How did the pup do on the flight back?

She is one little trooper. After the first wave hit, she danced out of the way of the waves.

A tired traveler, she travels very well never causes a fuss, waiting for the train at the airport
