Serene Scenery Sunday

Hello, everyone!  It's me, Cammie, here with Serene Scenery Sunday.

Today, I'm coming to you from our back yard. Ready for a little stroll in the garden?

I like to start over here, by the Fountain Grass under the Purple Ash Tree.

We were just getting started; I have the long lead on in case one of Zim's kit-cat friends is visiting or something.

There are some cool chunks of limestone under the tree that I like to pose on.

Have I mentioned that Mom had salmon treats in her pocket?

Will pose for salmon

Over by the roses, I did my Serious Look:

Then, by the Coneflowers, I did my Not-Serious Look:

The Not-Serious Look is much more "me"!

Would you like to see the Purple Coneflowers? Here are a couple shots:

Oh! Let's go see how the D'Azulberry Sedum are doing!

"I know it's 'Dazzleberry' ... but I like my name better!"

They're the sort of purply ones closest to me!  They're going strong - and might bloom soon!  You can see some other sedum right next to it - and down on the next tier, too!  Speaking of the next tier down, let's run down there!

I like going down there to check on the daisies! Let's see how they're doing.

"BUG!"

Oh, wait.  I forgot.  Mom has salmon.

Here's a daisy close-up for you!

I had nothing to do with the fact that the butterfly is missing parts of its wings!

This is one of my favorite places in the garden to sit and contemplate the beauty around me. (Not to mention, I have a good view of Fluffy Black Cat's yard and the fields behind our house. You never know who could be out there!)

"Life is beautiful!"

Oh, yeah! Remember the wall I didn't jump off the other day? You could kind of see the Crape Myrtle bushes on the last tier down from there. Let's take a look now!

Just for the record, I walked around! ...and got a salmon treat!

Anyway, here's a close-up of one of the Crape Myrtle branches:

They're just now starting to bloom, so we have lots of pinky goodness to look forward to!

I hope you feel nice and serene now!  Thanks for walking around the garden with me!

Camo!

  14. Who wouldn't pose for salmon? You look lovely. I think you are really getting the hang of this serene Sunday.

    I want to let you know that momma is having some issues with blogs. Her Feedly got all messed up. She is so grouchy about it and I miss my friends.

    Kisses,
    Dexter
