Is watering the garden early in the morning.. Some mornings, and today is one of those mornings, I am able to smell the garlic that grows about 30 miles away in Gilroy California. Gilroy is home to the Garlic Festival held every July.
The mornings are cool and a little over cast. It's quite outside, a few birds just starting to wake up.
roses waiting for the next bloom
late planted tomatoes, one Cherry, one Beefsteak
my leaky $2.00 bird bath...I love it even though it leaks and have added another great find....a $1.00 Koi Fish garden statue
the front porch still proudly showing off for the 4th of July
I'm off to breakfast with friends, and then to the Santa Clara County Fair! We are going to watch the local 4-H group display their pigs!
Happy Sunday!!

We're getting ready for our big county fair. We set up in September and the fair starts in October. Your gardens look so pretty. Do you ever roast your tomatoes? That's my favorite way to eat them - all bursting with deliciousness.
