I Can See Clearly Now!

After almost a week of rain … today is sunny, hot and humid … and my garden is popping!

jimmy cliff lyrics : "bright sunshiny day"

I CAN SEE CLEARLY NOW THE RAIN IS GONE
I CAN SEE ALL OBSTACLES IN MY WAY
Gone are are the dark clouds that had me blind
IT'S GONNA BE A BRIGHT BRIGHT BRIGHT SUN SHINY DAY
IT'S GONNA BE A BRIGHT BRIGHT BRIGHT SUN SHINY DAY

I think I CAN MAKE IT NOW THE PAIN IS GONE
ALL OF THE BAD FEELINGS HAVE DISAPPEARED
HERE IS THAT RAINBOW I'VE BEEN PRAYING FOR
IT'S GONNA BE A BRIGHT BRIGHT BRIGHT SUN SHINY DAY

LOOK ALL AROUND THERE'S NOTHING BUT BLUE SKIES
LOOK STRAIGHT AHEAD THERE'S NOTHING BUT BLUE SKIES

AHH, AHH, AHH, AHH
OOOOOOO

I CAN SEE CLEARLY NOW THE RAIN IS GONE
I CAN SEE ALL OBSTACLES IN MY WAY
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
IT'S GONNA BE A BRIGHT (BRIGHT) BRIGHT SUN SHINY DAY
IT'S GONNA BE A BRIGHT (BRIGHT) BRIGHT SUN SHINY DAY

OH YEAH
IT'S GONNA BE A BRIGHT BRIGHT BRIGHT SUN SHINY DAY
IT'S GONNA BE A BRIGHT BRIGHT BRIGHT SUN SHINY DAY
IT'S GONNA BE A BRIGHT BRIGHT BRIGHT SUN SHINY DAY-EE-A-EE-YEAH

Yet more beauty on the grounds of your home, I assume.

From the photos you've posted, I can see that you could grow a great vegie garden provided you can keep the critters away. From the time my mother had a WW2 Victory Garden behind the garage, I've wanted to grow vegies.  Only in one of the homes I owned did I have the place to plant one, and it was pretty successful because I fenced it well (we had rabbits try to get to it). The funny thing is that when I retired from my profession, I was given an aptitude test which determined that I was best suited to be a farmer.

Soon my crape myrtles will be blooming. My dogwood that was planted last year is in full bloom now.

Love the flower pics, that first one looks like it really did explode. No, it's exploding in slow motion.

My computer is playing its tricks again - I posted this once, it disappeared, so here we go again.

A rock garden on the local hospital grounds, to cheer those seeking medical help.
