The azaleas are blooming again...they were cut so far down last year (before we knew it and could stop them) we weren't sure we would get much this year...not as pretty as the first year, but we'll cut them back ourselves this year and make sure they don't get butchered...

This thing always blooms...and some of the larger flowers from time to time are gorgeous

Another tall one...in the shade...it's 98 degrees on the porch...you can see some of how hazy it is from the heat in the background...the ridgeline kind of just melts into a blurry, indistinct colored hill...

More roses...

A couple of the roses, this one and another, really grew tall...

Finally got some blooms on our crepe mytrles!

I told BD, who is away from home on a detail through the end of September and doesn't get home much until then, I would put up some pics of the blooms around the house...so here they are!!
