The Evening Sail

Hello everyone,

 We are still enjoying beautiful summer weather

here on the Island  so we are  relaxing

by the seaside as much as possible.

I especially love watching the sailboats

going by our little Ocean Song Cottage.

We don't have a sailboat but I really enjoy

watching them on the water.

Such a peaceful place to enjoy to

enjoy my book and a cup of tea.

And now evening is coming to a close as we watch a

beautiful sunset  at the West River.

Loving these summer days and wanting to enjoy

all the joys of summer for as long as I can.

Thank you for visiting,

Carolyn

Sunday Afternoon Tea

Hello everyone,

We have been enjoying beautiful summer weather here

and so I am enjoying spending my days out doors as

much as possible.

So that means enjoying my afternoon tea out in the garden.

Here, we are having our  iced tea on the porch of our little

Boathouse by the pond.

Another lovely spot for tea in our August garden.

There is always so much color in the garden in late

summer.

Tea among the peonies is always a pleasure.

A most romantic little hideaway surrounded by roses.

The allee garden is always lovely so you

can enjoy your tea time among the lilacs,

roses,nepeta and hydrangeas.

Early in the season is appleblossom time for our tea time.

Grab a pretty vintage teacup and join me.

Some tea time treats.

                                                                         A shady nook in our garden to enjoy
                                                                         breakfast and linger with a cup of tea.

                                                                     Tea and scones with roses.

                                                           An all white Sunday afternoon tea in
                                                                      the garden is so elegant.
                                                                      So go ahead and pick your favorite spot
                                                                      for a relaxing Sunday afternoon tea!

                                                                            Hope you enjoy a relaxing day surrounded
                                                                       by the beauty of nature!

                                                                                  Thank you for visiting,

                                                                                           Carolyn

August Blues

      Hello everyone,

      Can you believe August is almost half over?

I am hoping that since summer was slow

    coming this year that it will be slow to leave

   us as well. Although I enjoy all the seasons

summer is my favorite .

  Anyway ,sorry I haven't posted much lately

but I have a few August blues to share today.

The above shot was taken at our Ocean Song

Cottage a few weeks ago. I love the hedge of

hardy roses in the background.

It is tea time and I am arranging a

bouquet for our tea.

You can't go wrong with blue and white it

always look so fresh and pretty.

Love relaxing here at Ocean Song Cottage

with the beautiful blue August sky.

I hope you are enjoying your summer and thanks

for stopping by to visit me.

Take care,

Carolyn
