Out of My Rear Window 5/16/10



The lilacs are fading, but, the sun is shining and it is supposed to be a beautiful day. I hope I can get the rest of my annuals planted today, and still have time to try to get back into the woods.

Good Morning Louise!
It seems everyone is out and busy, except me. Sure could use some sunshine here. woke up to drizzling rain.
Too bad the flowers don't last longer, but seems the time (and flowers) just goes faster, when the weather warms up.

Have a great day!

Our lilacs are just coming out, I always love them, something very old fashioned and romantic about lilacs. Your garden looks lovely

The lilacs have just come into their own here. I love their scent. I was so sorry to read about the decline of your aunt: I am sending you lots of hugs.

Such beauty in your yard. Really park like. No wonder you love being outside so much. Love it.

I read your post about your Aunt and know how you feel. I am going through a similar thing with my Aunt. Along with being a favorite Aunt, she is my connection to my Mom. It's very difficult when things we love, even beautiful Lilacs begin to fade...

From the title, I thought this would be Alfred Hitchcockish:) Guess I'm a hopeless mystery buff.

You have a lovely yard. Our lilacs went by a couple weeks ago.

Oh! It's so pretty and green there. You are making me want to try and grow my own lilacs. :)
