Home again

While I was gone to the coast, we had a heat wave at home and then a really windy day. My lilacs are gone now. I'm so sad to see them dried up and will miss their freshness. The tomatoes liked the heat and grew a few inches while I was gone, and the strawberries are forming, and will ripen in a few days if all goes well. But the freshness of the early spring blooms are a thing of the past now. I'm going to give everything a good soak today and see if I can revive anything. I'll post pics of the trip and my new works soon.
