Today,even though we are still in the midst of winter I was doing a
little daydreaming of long summer days spent relaxing in the garden.
I think I must have dreamt that we have a couple of full time gardeners
if I was thinking I was going to be lazing around in a hammock all day!
my book!
Lunch in the garden,anyone?
Lemonade and a cupcake before an afternoon nap?
In case you were wondering, I added the lace
from an old bed skirt to the umbrella to give it a
romantic touch.
Phew! What a busy day .....so happy I can sit for a spell
by the pond and enjoy the beauty of nature or maybe finishthat book I have been 'working' on all day.
Well, I enjoyed my daydreaming for awhile, but for now I will enjoy my
tea and a book by the fireside instead!
Now,just in case you think I am a pampered lady......I don't really spend
my days moving from hammock to hammock but I can always dream!!!
Thank you for visiting,
Carolyn
Love all the beautiful garden pictures, they are all so wonderfully inviting...we are still having some beautiful days in ca. so I cannot complain..I loved the old green wicker rocker, what a comfy wonerful chair...
ReplyDeleteDream a little dream for me too!
ReplyDeleteI love your dreaming!
Your flowers are so lovely, thanks for sharing. I was blessed to have sunshine today and could work in the green house without a jacket on! I, too am dreaming of Spring.
ReplyDeleteIt is the dreaming of flowers and gardens that are getting me through this very cold and snowy Winter, Carolyn. Thank you for sharing your garden pictures to help keep that dream going!
ReplyDeleteEven with our weather unseasonably warm, I don't have time to sit in the garden and read. But like you, a girl can dream.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the beautiful photos.
They are all such lovely spots....martha's garden is my favorite!!!
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, longing for summer...

ReplyDeleteHoi Carolyn, ik krijg altijd zoveel inspiratie als ik naar je foto's kijk! super mooi! groetjes Heidi
ReplyDeleteWhat a dream your garden is for me. I need to sit and dream out landscape ideas for around the old house. I wish I could see it through your eyes as your grounds are perfection in my eyes. Such a gift you are blessed with my friend.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely post Carolyn, I adore the corner between the roses...so romantic...I can almost smell those lovely roses up here ;)
ReplyDeleteWe'll have to wait for a few months...it's really cold here now, about -3 degrees...
I'm longing for spring...
Lovely greetings, MJ
Thank you darling for this enchanting spring dream! I needed a colorful dream in these gray and cold days!

This is exactly what I needed today! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteAhhhhh, lovely shots of spring, Carolyn. We must hang on a little longer, right? Thanks for sharing. Susan
ReplyDeleteThank you Carolyn. I needed this. Sounds like you're going to get above freezing in the next couple of days according to CBC this morning. J
ReplyDeleteIt was lovely to daydream in your beautiful gardens, Carolyn. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteHello Carolyn
ReplyDeleteI have just spent the day dreaming with you in your hamcock and on the other beautiful places at yours.
But we must come back to the real world after this trip and go back to work not only in summer but also tomorrow.
I hope you enjoyed your book by the fireplace.

Andrew's getting to be a pretty good photographer, too! Lovely photos of you!

I enjoy your blog so much and it inspires me. I do wish that you would put some hints in as to how you are able to keep up such a large garden and the house as well. Do you have a lot of help or do you do all of that yourself?
ReplyDeleteThank you for the great idea of putting that trim on a patio umbrella. You just seem to have the gift of bringing out beauty in everything. Thanks for sharing it with others.
ReplyDeleteYour gardens are gorgeous! It's been snowing here all day and I am longing for Spring. Mustn't hurry the snow though. It's what makes our gardens gorgeous during the hot summer. Right now we are below average, so bring it on!
