My yard in finally in bloom. This is my favorite place to work out my frustrations, feel my greatest joy, and pretend to see fairy's lounging on flower petals! Sometimes I pretend I live on a country estate ~ until I I catch a view of our local Friendly restaurant on the busy street behind my yard! (look just to the right of my bird bath) The busy street I speak of is called Rubber Avenue ~ so named because Naugatuck was the home of Charles Goodyear. At one time the rubber factory's dominated our town. Soon a wonderful redevelopment plan will break ground. Where those factory's once stood will be upscale shopping, movie theater, a green way along the Naugatuck River and a state of the art energy plant that will provide power to the project. The developer Mr. Conroy recently completed Providence Place in Providence ,R.I. I can't wait !!!!

How lovely! I think it would be easy to get lost in here. Flowers seem to calm and transform us into our own world no matter where we are. I have a privacy fence and two rows of evergreens separating my garden from a neighbor and when I am in the garden, I rarely remember I have a neighbor. I get lost in my work and the beauty of it all. To think I planted every little thing in there is unreal. Keep enjoying your serenity. I'd love to be having tea there with you.
