Some of the Flowers of Summer

The Amazing Corning Museum of Glass

Nothing can quite prepare you for the color, the sparkle and the just plain wonderful glass that you will see. 

Rose Garden at Boscobel

Boscobel is located on the Hudon River and has a lovely rose garden. 

The Magnificence of Niagara Falls

We spent the morning in Niagara Falls on the Canadian side. We went on the Journey Behind the Falls. I am awe-struck, to say the least. 

Japanese Garden Sonnenberg

The first garden we toured at Sonnenberg was the Japanese Garden. Not much was in bloom but the setting is lovely. 

Roses at Sonnenberg Gardens

Located in Canandaigua, New York, Sonnenberg Gardens are 50 acres of gardens that offer you a view of the Gilded Age in Upstate New York. I was particularly entranced by the Rose Garden. 

My Rose of Sharon blooms

I have three Rose of Sharon bushes in my yard to the east side of my house. I put them in to allow us a little privacy. All three of them are different colors, pink, lavender and white. Here is how they currently look.

Hydrangeas after the rain

I do love to take flower pictures and these were taken Monday July 24 after the heavy rain subsided.
