Vacation!!

Finally vacation and I'm at Vätö and it is too windy to paddle and too cold to swim.......so I head into my playhouse and start playing. (Or workshop but then I would be working...) 

And a couple of stepping stones. Beach theme in Scandinavia ?

And mosaic added. Not quite right. Will have to do over, I do not have enough patience to do mosaic I'm afraid but learning....(add to the courses I'm planning to take this fall) 

Not too bad for first week of vacation but now even too cold to work outside!

Stepping stones

Finally we had rain today. Much needed. Of course it was a little bad timing as it was my only day off this week, but still the flowers were really drying out. Errands to do; haircut, food shopping, training, flowers to AR.  

1st July

Oh Canada! Used to go to Toronto (center island) for kayak races. Miss having the summers off(well they weren't really off since we trained our butts off!). After Another tough day at work with lots of  cranky people it is nice to come home and inspect the garden. Eat a couple of strawberries. Look at the funny flowers. What am I going to do with these things?!

Lill hjärtan

Another little table. Nice to have next to "Baden Baden" or solsängen. Just enough space for a cup of tea or glass of lemonade and a book!

June blooms

This garden time of year. After dinner went out and picked some strawberries and did a little "deadheading". So peaceful. Sometimes very neglectful of Vaxmora, so busy going to Vätö. Definitely needs some weeding but M mowed today.

Commuting to work from Vätö I took 2 pictures on the way. Now off a couple more days-enjoying it!! Read one book and worked on concrete projects to be shown next time!

Magic!

This time of the year is just pure magic! Driving home from work tonight around 10, the sun was starting to go down and the light was fantastic. Then I saw 5 hot air balloons floating in that sunlight. Sweden is wonderful this time of the year!
