You're Invited!



 Hello everyone,
         Hope you had a lovely weekend again. Can you believe it is the end  of July already???  I remember a few of you Island readers have asked when our Garden Tour day is and I thought that this Wednesday  evening I would have an open garden for any of you that would like to stop by.
 So maybe I won't be lounging in the hammock this week as the garden needs a bit of a tune up but you can enjoy it for a spell. This is a Novica hammock-handmade in Mexico.
 We are having a beautiful sunny warm but not too hot summer-my only compliant is we could use more rain.

 But,it is perfect for lounging in the hammock or trips to the beach.
 A cold glass of lemonade and a book and you're set for the afternoon in this shady corner of the garden.


 Some summer perennials to admire while you relax.




 Have you fallen asleep already?
This little squirrel had his eye on the your cupcake and he is just waiting for you to doze off so he can nab it! He is a smart little guy and loves when I have a little treat and turn my back for a minute

Sorry, for the short notice but if you live nearby and would like to have a garden tour- you are welcome anytime between 6:30 and 8:30 this Wednesday August 1 .Hope to see you then!

Take care,
Carolyn

    Carolyn can you hear us moaning and groaning down South [S. Alabama for me] We are sooooo envious -wishing we lived closeby and could accept your invitation on Wednesday..but then if we lived on "your island" we might be day dreaming of the warmer climate and going to Florida/Alabama BEACHES.
    Thank you again for sharing this wonderful fairland retreat..that's my description of what I see..

    I would love to come to your garden tour some day. I'll be busy packing for my trip to Alberta! A new grandbaby is due, hopefully, today! I hope you have some visitors to enjoy your gardens. Blessings, Pamela

    I wish I lived near you, or was at least visiting the area, Carolyn! It would be a pleasure to tour your beautiful gardens in person.

    It looks like pure bliss to lay on the hammock and doze the afternoon away.

    I wish! Some day I hope to come back to PEI and see your gardens Carolyn. Until then, I enjoy the pictures you share.
    While away, I saw a hammock similar to yours and I so wanted to hop on it to try it out. :-)
