We've had our hot days here as well and a lot of flowers that would only be starting are finished.

Hibiscus is so pretty. And rolling dog is cute too!

We're just emerging from a rainy period. I'm GLAD.

Teresa - I love summer!

Linda G - Hot is what happens in Texas :)

Delores - Many flowers that thrive almost everywhere in summer are spring-only here - like petunias and snapdragons.

LR - Hibiscus is one of my favorites. Tried to get Other Dog rolling, too, but he refused to cooperate. Something about a bad hair day.

The flowers are pretty but the doggie rollin' in the grass is precious.

Great pictures. Gotta love watching a dog enjoy a nice roll in the grass.

Pool sounds great.

Oh, we have summer. And I have to mow in it. I'll take the pool, thanks!

Wow. Did you take the rolling dog in grass photos? So cool! I love summer flowers but they make me sneeze. Except for yours. Can't figure out why.
We are having a wet tropical early summer so far here. Very green. Very wet all the time.

We're finally hitting the 70's. I'm so not acclimated to heat anymore, I'm melting ... lol I live at a high altitude in Oregon. It's desert so we can have 40 degree temp differences between day and night. Your flowers are beautiful.

Lovely flowers -- and I especially like the dog rolling in the grass!

Laura - Thanks :)

Heather - I did. The more I use my new camera, the more I love it!

M Pax - Don't come to San Antonio anytime between April and November - LOL!

Dianne - Thanks. He's my furbaby :)

It's been in the forties here. I don't know what that is in fahrenheit but it's hot! I could go jump in a pool right about now.

Clarissa - I looked on the converter. 40C = 104F. Very hot. Come over and cool off :)

So that is what crape myrtle looks like! I always wanted to know. It pops up in books here and there and I could never visualize it.

Oh, gorgeous! It's supposed to be summer in England. Instead, we're getting a monsoon...

Carol Kilgore said…
Lydia - It's gorgeous. Those big clusters of blooms cover the tree in early summer and bloom less spectacularly until mid-fall. I've seen white, pink, rose, purple, and watermelon colors. The watermelon is almost a true red.

Talli - We could use a little rain. But I love sunshine :)

Lovely pictures of summer, Carole! Thanks. We are heading into winter but with my upcoming visit to US, hopefully I will be in summer!

Sweet! I can't believe there's only a week of spring left. It already feels like summer. Okay, it's not exactly hot, but neither are Calgary's summers.

Carol Kilgore said…
Nas - I hope you have a beautiful summer on your visit here. Can't wait to hear all about your trip.

Stina - And our winters are not like yours. I would be bundled up more than Nanook of the North in Calgary.
