End of Summer 2024

While I’m bemoaning the end of summer and yet still celebrating the colors of fall and the beautiful warm weather we’ve been having — I found two photos on my laptop from this past summer that need to be reviewed.

Looking up Cove ….

Some early sweet peas along the bank and “ditch lilies” along the garden

… and looking down Cove (both from my quilt studio deck)

Hydrangeas were beautiful this year. And my potted plants did great too!

Both were taken July 7 right in the start of the glorious summer weather.
Tomorrow? Maybe a post with some late summer or fall colors.

Lupine Day

A beautiful day for a walk — up to Fort Hill. And a beautiful reward once we got there

Rainbows and Raking Light

Yesterday’s early afternoon rainbow out over the Atlantic was a real treat. Rain showers had been everywhere, just not directly overhead. But the showers out over the ocean provided us with some beauty as the sun was getting ready to set.

And then Sunday morning a raking light highlighted the dining area with the new table runner (made of Nantucket Summer Moda fabrics) and the new luminara candles purchased specifically to go in this setting.

I particularly love the yellow background outside the dining area windows — yellows curtesy of the daffodils that line the bank and the forsythia that are blooming just below the edge.

Ahhhh………..spring on Cape Cod
