Heatwave

This morning there were dark clouds heaping up in the sky and after a few hours it rained for a bit. Nice. The ones allergic to pollen were happy – finally a chance to breathe. 

The warmest day so far this year – this afternoon the rain was no where to be seen and the sun was shining again. 

Worked a long day today and when I got back home our rhododendron had started to bloom. And some of the white roses too. And the peonies. And.. and.. and.. Lovely! Best time of the year when the whole garden is coming alive.
