Hello, Monika! - Vihdoin sadetta



Rhododendron 'Haaga'


Hello all! Especially, I want to say "hello" and "welcome" to Monika and other new followers. If you have a blog, I'd love to visit it. I always follow back your blogs about gardening/nature/books/crafts etc. but sometimes it's not easy to find them! So please remember, if you have a blog and you hope me (and other readers) to visit it, leave a comment or write me an email. ♥

Happy summer (or winter) days to you! :)






YllÀoleva koskee tietysti myös suomenkielisiÀ lukijoita. :) YritÀn aina tulla vierailulle ja seuraajaksi lukijoitteni blogiin. Jos en tule, se johtuu siitÀ, ettÀ en ole löytÀnyt sitÀ. Useinhan seuraajalistan profiilissa lukijan oma mahdollinen blogi ei nÀy eikÀ Googleplussakaan aina auta...

Toivottavasti tekin olette jo saaneet sadetta tai ainakin saatte pian! TÀÀllÀ on satanut eilen ja tÀnÀÀn, tosin vain kuuroja. SÀÀtiedotus piti hyvin paikkansa: Eilen tuuli tosiaan kovaa.

KevĂ€t tuli myöhĂ€ssĂ€, mutta lĂ€mpimĂ€t sÀÀt jouduttivat kasvua niin, ettĂ€ lupiinitkin alkavat jo kukkia! Ihania kesĂ€pĂ€iviĂ€ kaikille! ♥

Mustarastaan laulupuu ♥














Humidity's been rising, barometer's been gettin' low...



Hallelujah, it's finally raining!

    Some beautiful photographs Sara. I love the gorgeous glowing sky.
    It's been unusually dry here for the time of year and the gardens could do with some rain. X

    Katselen kaihoisasti noita rodon ja lupiinien pÀÀllĂ€ olevia raikkaita sadepisaroita. TÀÀllĂ€ vielĂ€ taistellaan kuivuutta vastaan. Aurinko taas paistelee jo aamusta. ☀️

    Sinulta saamistani syksyllĂ€ istutetuista lupiinien siemenistĂ€ on kehittynyt pieniĂ€ lehtiĂ€. Saa nĂ€hdĂ€ milloin kukkivat. SInulla on kauniita lupiineja tulossa. Olen ihan samaa mieltĂ€ kuin edellinen kommentoija: Kuvat ovat kuin ammattilaisen ottamia 🙂

    Dear Sara,
    glad you're back from your trip and wait for the photos. Finally rain dropped here as well and my garden has been watered without me :-)
    Nice photos, especially rhododendrons. My HU and Pekka is in wonderful bloom too.
    Hugs!

    Voi, miten upeita kuvia. On kiva nÀhdÀ asiat lÀheltÀ, miten paljon maailma muuttuukaan silloin. Arjen kiireissÀ vaan hurahtelee ohi, mutta oikeasti - kannattaa pysÀhtyÀ. Ja kuvaaminen on ihan parasta keinoa tallentaa hienot muistot myöhempiinkin hetkiin. Vau!

    Hi Sara, it's been lovely to see your summer in Finland and gorgeous photos. You can say happy summer and happy winter to me as I am off to the UK and Australia both in the next few weeks, just to confuse my bio rhythms!
    Have a wonderful week
