I love all the beautiful photos you have posted lately in your last posts and enjoying the beauty that you enjoy there in your lovely state. We had a hot hot summer too here, but one thing my part of Idaho does not have is humidity. It's so arid here in the mountains that I can feel my face wrinkling! I'm happy to read that you at least had a day of reprieve from the heat and were able to get some of the things done you have wanted to get done. <br />It's weird about your Limelights getting chewed on. It seems that they would be something they deer would leave alone. But speaking of deer, I loved the beautiful capture of the sweet doe and her babies. I know that having them in your garden would be devastating, but darn they were cute! :)<br />I hope you are having a beautiful fall so far!<br />sending hugs from here...Junehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17283259375743586344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3341838200122042033.post-27372616276593754192016-09-18T03:10:34.824-04:002016-09-18T03:10:34.824-04:00It sounds like you are enjoying some lovely weathe...It sounds like you are enjoying some lovely weather now Michele...

Temperatures were unbearable here too so I am definitely looking forward to the cooler temps. <br /><br />I do have to agree Michele,bloggers were way ahead with fall this year. I feel like I am way behind everyone else. I am slowly working my way into autumn decor but I am not rushing anything.

We've had the air conditioner on a lot!!<br />It just started cooling off 2 days ago, thank goodness!! I was so excited to open all the windows and french doors.

The hot season is much more bearable in this neck of the woods. And probably all of the other seasons too! We just don't get a lot of green. Fall will be lovely.

I'm having a look around your lovely blog and find that we have a lot in common. :) I definitely not a heat/humidity lady either...it's been a long summer...and am so looking forward to fall. I also like hydrangeas and want to plant some. We have a problem with rabbits eating our plants instead of deer but either way it's gets frustrating when they "dine" on our gardens. <br />Sandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14394843724747507346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3341838200122042033.post-86723711495462435232016-08-30T12:29:55.848-04:002016-08-30T12:29:55.848-04:00Southwestern PA here and hate high temps and humid...Southwestern PA here and hate high temps and humidity...Sunday was awful with a heat index of 98 but after thunderstorms rolled through that night we have had cooler mornings for a bit.

I adore fall but never rush it. I have my fall decorations up right until after Thanksgiving and that's an awful long time if started now. I am getting in the baking mood. I love spice cakes and breads so I have some individual little cake pans and some pretty fall themed sprinkles and I'm pulling out the recipes. Just a nice treat for family and friends to have for dessert with their coffee as our evenings turn to dusk a bit earlier.<br /><br />I know you are probably reveling in the joy of your new family addition!! Emily has two months to go and psssssst...my oldest son and his wife are expecting as well. Just found out. She is due in February. My family is multiplying at warp speed.

I watered plants daily through it all and have noticed a change in the season coming. The mornings are dark again around 6 a.m. when I usually wake. I've been noticing the fall displays of things for sale and picked up an item or two but I'm not ready to decorate for it just yet. I'm enjoying the last days of Summer the best I can. I have limelight hydrangeas and so far haven't been bothered with deer but I just read up on it and I guess the deer do go for them.

I hope not.
