The weather is much improved - cooler with the blue skies back and the smoke mostly gone.
August always seems a bit overblown to me - overly exuberant - the last hurrah.

Wonderful! The last pic w/the bee is perfect!🐝🌻
I swear the bees here in Fl are soooo big--huge--compared to up north in NY and the dragon flies same thing--they often look like small planes flying around--great photos--
enjoy the moments, di
Great photos! We have many of the same garden flowers.
Lovely Beth...each flower so beautiful. I really enjoyed your garden photos. RJ@ stitchingfriendsforever
Wow--that is a HUGE bee! I have been seeing pretty big ones of all types this summer, everywhere we go! Interesting to watch. So glad that the smoke is gone... and you have Blue Skies! The yard and garden are beautiful, as always! Hugs!
