We finally had some much needed rain! My lawn and gardens certainly appreciated it… Looking at the weeks forecast, there is a chance of rain almost daily, but temps are gonna settle into the 80’s for what appears to be a mostly normal August! It’s a very pleasant morning 🌞 Locust in the background, partly sunny and mild. The birds are singing, my oven is preheating, & I’m drinking coffee ☕️ trying to capture a thought 💭

Last night I started getting serious with my Moonlight Pond Tour preparation… Checking lights, adjusting things, trying a few new things out… Please let me know what you think so far 😊






It was HOT last night though! 92 degrees and super humid at 11pm 😯 When we got through Jo and I were both soaked and exhausted 🥱 It’s a good feeling to me 😊

Great end to a great week! It’s been hot, but it’s about to change…
“Seen from above, the canopy of oak and make and pine is pierced by the pond, which looks back at you like some green eye, knowing and ancient. The air above the pond dives into clefts of coolness, then rises up at the warmth of the margins. Down the path, filigrees of blackflies and mosquitos dance in the heat waves given off by men and women and their domestic fires. Joyous bats dart about.”

I’m coming off an anniversary weekend and my lovely wife of 29 years got me a new underwater camera! That might not sound exciting to you, but to me it was an Awesome gift! I spent last night shooting underwater videos of my Ponds 😊 WOW! Looking up at the ”Other side” of the surface is really cool… And very Zen as well! Watch this short video and let me know what you think.
Did I mention that this was my 1st. video with my new camera? Wow! I love this thing…
Take a minute and find that place of Zen for yourself! it will set the tone for the whole week.
Have a Great Monday!

Yesterday evening was so nice! A cool northerly breeze pushed all that humidity out and as the Landscape Lighting was kicking on the entire garden had such a ’Zen’ feeling… It was so surreal… I took this short video to share with you this morning.
Enjoy this day! And enjoy this week as well, it ends with a long weekend! Independence Day here we come! 💥🇺🇸💥
