With all this heat (it’s supposed to be a record-breaking 108F today) and no rain, nothing is growing. It’s been almost a month since I last mowed grass. I’m spending a lot of time indoors enjoying the air conditioning and all outdoor projects are on hold. That said, I’m not overly upset about not cleaning out the garage.

I thought I’d share though what my garden looked like this time last year…

I bought my house in July of 2007 and instantly fell in love with the yellow lilies that line the south side of the house. This year I got a lot of leaves and only a bloom or two. Boo.

Here’s hoping for some rain.
