Wow. <br /><br />I'm not ready for fall, I'm still surprised when it gets dark out earlier every night. So much to do and time is fleeting. <br /><br />Love your garden, Lona, and if I'm ever in Ohio again, I'd make sure to ask for a tour!Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18368318730124533690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3702367777217796558.post-29533299155291025262011-08-18T16:04:54.134-04:002011-08-18T16:04:54.134-04:00Your flower photos are very pretty.
