Change of Pace… It’s been a struggle for me t Change of Pace…

It’s been a struggle for me to keep things watered this summer-I was sad to say goodbye to my sister this morning- she was really good at keeping things soaked!

This year I decided to put only Hydrangeas in our front pots- keeping it simple but interesting by mixing the varieties. (@mahoneysgarden has the best choices!!) I even broke out of my Symmetry Box-Swipe!

I liked it- doing that drew attention to the left side, and my old beach sign on the porch as you came up the front walk.

Sharing before they fade, I’m hesitant to plant them in the ground before this drought passes!

Sunset of the Week… Spectacular weather continu Sunset of the Week…

Spectacular weather continues here on the Cape and we have taken advantage of every minute. My sister and and an old high school friend have been visiting all week. We spent mornings on the beach, every evening out on the deck, and we watched A LOT of sunsets. 

This one, though-this moment stood out the most to me- it seemed to say “It’s August on Cape Cod!”

Goodbye July… Closing out our favorite month wi Goodbye July…

Closing out our favorite month with a look back on what is becoming a tradition for us— a Fourth of July Glamping Party! 

My daughter Nathalie wrote a blog post about how we plan it, the little details that make it special and links to all the necessities! 

There is nothing like hosting a party this way- it really is a weekend to remember! Swipe through for some highlights from this year and last year- then head to my blog to see how we pull it off!

I’ve linked it in my bio!

Heatwave… This extraordinary heat! It was steam Heatwave…

This extraordinary heat!
It was steamy on the cape for the last week, too. And while I’m usually all in favor of hot summer days, I stayed inside to ride it out right here -and it was nice.

Looks like relief is coming, I’m looking forward to a few thunderstorms to break this- they’re on the way.

Round Two… In come the purples! We have another Round Two…

In come the purples!
We have another week or two before we start cutting back the gardens. It’s been a beautiful hydrangea season on the cape and we’ve had crazy-good weather, though much of the week I spent working on inside projects. I’m looking forward to relaxing outside these next few days!

Cheers to the weekend!
