the summer has been brutal on my gardens...between the excessive heat and unusual lack of rain, so many plants are begging to become houseplants.  They don't like this weather any better than i do!

Hints of Autumn and it's cooler temps appear once in a while, tho ...a few cool nights, the lowering of the dippers in the sky (cool nights are welcome, dark at 8pm is not!).  A good time for a walk in the woods to look for souvenirs of summer, inspired this painting  (S0LD)
