This cold weather is strange and they say here that August will also be cool. I hope we have a late winter as the summer does seem short with it this cool.L.

Hardly anyone out there has air conditioners, she says, it is so unusual.<br /><br />The prairie is certainly beautiful. Being a New England girl, I am getting some sort of reverse claustrophobia from all that wide open space instead of trees, though :-)Karen Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13306986336556283751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-6135264749920704762009-08-01T13:37:08.488-05:002009-08-01T13:37:08.488-05:00These flowers are so pretty and delicate yet they ...These flowers are so pretty and delicate yet they grow without maintenance along the roadside. Makes me wonder if I am spending too much time tending my roses that don't do as well.<br /><br />I think global warming is in Seattle and the Pacific Northwest. They are sweltering. I am glad to give those high temps to them. It has been so comfortable this summer, I am really enjoying it.Raehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04858158707328118375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-78104060822583643032009-08-01T13:25:21.705-05:002009-08-01T13:25:21.705-05:00Hi Connie, I'm pretty sure that some of the me...Hi Connie, I'm pretty sure that some of the medical staff you and I have run-ins with are running blogger these days! ha<br />These are the sweetest little roses. I've never seen anything like these. That stretch of road in the prairie looks so inviting - it must be so quiet.<br />Thanks for sharing the pretty pics and describing the three of you out in the evening searching for more wildflowers. Sounds like a great way to end the day.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
