Time to enjoy the patio for the weekend and then it is off and back to the lake on Tuesday. Here are a few shots of our work. We are usually never home to see this clematis bloom fully. It has a small bloom but a pretty one.
The other clematis are in full bloom now...
This is my favourite...
These lavender and pink variegated Phlox are just starting to bloom...
And these dark fuschia ones are in full bloom at the moment...
The Day Lilies are working their magic
I have a few varieties of Day Lilies that bloom at slightly different times as I like to have blooms all through the season. Here there is a pale yellow and lavender variegated just finishing, a large burgundy and orange almost done, and in the foreground, a small burgundy one just starting to bloom.
Here are a few lake time shots of what we were up to in June and early July.
There was golfing to master...
And gangplanks to cross while playing golf...
There was a shed to be built...don't you love the fancy schmancy door closure! The door still needed fine tuned but the fellows were too beat! That shed weighs 350 pounds!
And fish that got caught!
I think I did a good job of hiding all the faces...so hopefully I have met my daughters wishes of no family faces on the internet.
The last photo is our friend holding the catch of the day...Luckily he does not mind his photo on the internet!

Your garden is beautiful.
One thing with having a lake house, is all the work that needs to be done to both the lake house and the year round home…but so lucky to have them both :)
This was a lovely photo gallery of your beautiful garden and happenings in your life, Maureen! Thank you for sharing! Those flowers (and that huge fish!) are really impressive. Be safe on the road tomorrow!! Hugs, Darnell

Your garden is lovely! I need lessons!
TFS your beautiful garden. Gosh, you & DH have definitely got green thumbs. Loved all the pretty flowers and what a striking background with the silvery greeny plants behind the colors. I'm so glad you were home to enjoy your hard work. Nice to see the lake pics too. Don't blame your DD one bit for one wanting the little faces on the net. She's being a good Mama. Have fun while you're gone. Hugs
