early morning light...

i love when the morning light streams through the front of my house...
and casts interesting shadows...

and bounces the light around,


creating a warm glow.

this will be a good day.

i have faith.

kitten enjoys the extra stripes...and the cozy warmth of mr. sunshine.

cat's have a talent for picking the best spots.

the house slowly wakes up .



as do i.

good mornin!


just easing into the day here..............

sorry i disturbed you kitten!

have a sun-shiney day please.

a walk in the woods...

baby, it's hot outside...


must stay in the shade...

the cool shade...

we have a lot more hot DAZE to come...

stay cool!

and now for something completely cute...

" pickets" garden gift store in seagrove, florida.


one of the cutest settings for a store i have ever seen!

just outside seaside, florida (also tipping the scale on cuteness).

and a block from the beach!
this adorable cottage surrounded by quaint, lushness.

the pink and blue gardens are just delightful.


as are all of the picket fences and arbors which surround this cutey pa tooty.

you can almost see the gulf of mexico across the street, you certainly can sense it.

we visited when the hydrangeas were peaking.

be still, my heart.

yep, garden phlox were peaking too.




my friend and i started to count how many times we squealed "how cute!"

we lost count........

just so darn cute!

A Drive Through The Country

have a peaceful day.
