Flowers in our yard...

...Or why I love our home! The azaleas were out in full force. Sadly, they are done blooming for this year. But, OH MY, what a show they put on. Much to my surprise, the whole property line on the east is laced with azalea bushes.

Not to be outdone was the wisteria vine behind our garage. Oh. my. It was something for this northern woman to behold.

This little garden of eden is at the beginning of all the azaleas. It is just a little spot I did up "East Hill Style". A chair left from the previous owner. A table give to me from my neighbor. A birdcage and window frame painting from yard sales. Truly a bit of whimsy.

"Your mind is not a cage. It's a garden. And it requires cultivating. "
