the temps were a bit more moderate but the humidity was higher than I've ever known it to be in Colorado
making morning walks uncomfortable in the intense sunshine but, I LIKE to walk and be outside. Come with me won't you? another neighbor has a gorgeous floral covered yard, and this is not a bouquet....
It's one stem of flowers!!! My roses are pathetic. Small, pale, few petals, fewer actual blossoms.

| we've had a bumper crop of bunnies this summer! |
this one is waiting for the mail carrier
we walked to the community garden again last weekend, and it's a showcase most of the time
Lucky for me, an extrovert who loves to chat with people, I saw a mother/daughter duo in their plot.
 |
| I liked this floral decal on a neighbor's car... do you? |
I asked how they decided to purchase a plot instead of trying in their own yard, and they said the soil is better here. I learned a lot from them, like melons and pumpkins actually thrive in our area
 |
| see? |
and they grow their own loofah's! I thought loofahs were sponges that grew in water but no. Easy to grow they said, then harvest slice and you have an unlimited supply! The daughter had some peppers in her pocket she allowed me to photo
 |
| so fun |
she said they are mild and grow well here
 |
| and wore an orange shirt ! |
 |
| they taste great! and this is a half recipe source the daily bake with Barb |

Our conversation starter this week is: do you like amusement parks? which one is your favorite? Do you like
rides or shows better?
I DO like amusement parks, just not roller coasters. Disney World is my fave, along with EPCOT Center. I love Disney and the mix of shows and rides. Disney combines rides with animation shows, like Tiki hut, haunted house, it's a small world.... then you sing that song the rest of the day. I first saw it at age 8 at the NY World's fair.

| world's Fair in NY |
I grew up going to Busch Gardens that used to be free, and gave out a free beer to adults after touring the brewery. They had great animals, and shows and shopping.
.
That's it for this week, I'm talking to poodle breeders to see if they have an adult poodle to rehome here
Please visit these folks to see what they liked this week
