Photo captured late evening August 3, 2010. I'm so sorry for not replying lately, my o and p keys on my laptop quit working, and it quickly became a pain having to copy and past every word that contained those letters. I'm happy to say, I'm up and running and got rid of a few viruses to boot, so I should be able to get caught up soon. Have a great week everyone.
:) Tommy

Beautiful vibrant colours and excellent vertical presentation Tommy!!! Glad you are up and running again :-)Michelle Alton August 04, 2010
I've had the same problem with my keyboard having a "mind" of its own. I swapped it out and the new one was fine for a while, and just recently started misbehaving again! Some compressed air seems to have helped. But I feel your pain. This is so pretty, Tommy. #8804954Tammy M. Anderson August 04, 2010

I love how the colors softly blend together. A very beautiful combination. The b/g sets off the colors of the flowers. Very nice work Tommy! I know you put in alot of hard work with your gardens. #8805103Linda D. Lester August 04, 2010

Wow, really pretty! Love the vibrance of your flowers. #8806731Tommy E. Burgess August 04, 2010
Thanks everyone so much for the kind words and understanding. I appreciate both greatly. I'm really liking the two meadow gardens a lot because of how easy they are to take care of Amanda. Now the other beds and islands are not so much fun with the temps now over 100 and super humid. I've decided that besides watering and doing a few small sections weeding, that until the weather cools some, the weeds can wait. Have a wonderfvul Thursday everyone and happy shooting. :) Tommy #8806996Laura E. Swan August 04, 2010
