Hyde Hall – Take 2

Standard

Again I went with my lovely friend to

Hyde Hall Garden as there was a Flowershow.

I totally loved it again. (see last post here)

Now in August, other flowers bloome,d

the sun was shining, a summer breeze in our hair…

What colours…
I love grasses

Some close ups with my Canon Camera

Bees were pollinating.

Plants make people happy !

We had a wonderful day, we were very happy in this garden.

A garden is not a place
but a journey.

I leave you with a sea of Echinaceas

Wishing you a wonderful Summer !

It is really hot in the UK today,

it feels like Spain, who needs to go on holiday 🙂

Even the sky seems to be on fire – taken at sunset yesterday

Food for thought

Remember to spend quality time with yourself 
so that you can experience being, 
instead of doing 
where you can feel relaxed, 
instead of rushed 
where you take time out to get in touch with yourself 
and fall in love with life again.

Have a wonderful Summer!

Finally holidays are starting for me.

I wish all my blogging friends a beautiful summer/winter and relaxing vacation.

Even if you don’t go travelling, enjoy a peaceful time wherever you are!

Even if it is on your own branch! 🙂

I have a couple of outings planned and hope to be able to share it with you during Summer.

Never forget that I hold you all

very dear to my heart.

Sending you many hugs and love
