Rain……

 

We got some much needed rain overnight.

It is very humid this morning

but everything seems so fresh and renewed now!


I am strong to stand alone

Stunning bougainvillea for a Spanish or Mediterranean style home.  They struggle to survive in the rain and cold though, so wait until Summer to plant!

French garden with stone wall, fountain & gravel.  When done well, crushed gravel can have a elegant yet relaxed cottage atmosphere.

That first pic is the cutest!! Glad that you received some rain. We have had a pretty dry hot week so far. I haven't even looked at the weather forecast yet for the weekend. Now I'm curious.

That first picture is so funny, Deserae. And the picture with the purple flowers is gorgeous. I LOVE PURPLE!

It's nice when it rains, isn't it? It cleans everything out.

That was quite the rainstorm wasn't it? We got a little over an inch in Olathe. How much did Topeka get? We needed some rain. I always feel like the trees and plants are saying, " ahhhhhh"
