After the Rain.... A Gorgeous Rainbow and A Warm Fire

We had a bit of sunshine today before the rain paid us a visit again. The amazing thing this evening was checking outside while the rain poured and seeing a gorgeous rainbow arching over the lake.
It was perfect timing for a fire in the gazebo as the rain continued to fall and the evening cooled down.

Kit decided it was his job to check out the fireplace first.

Everett and Kit enjoying the fire.

 Shelby and Annie loved the warmth of the fire.

The view from the gazebo is always beautiful.

Good Day Sunshine

How wonderful to have sunshine. The plants have been moved out of the greenhouse. I was able to begin planting my purchases from last week. I could enjoy the fragrance surrounding me.

The irises are still creating quite a stir in the front garden!

 The poppies were just going to sleep for the evening when I caught this image.

 Lily is protecting the gardens and appreciating the cool grass.

 My first rose in bloom.... "Nearly Wild."

I Love Gaiser Conservatory

Today our photo hunt took us to Gaiser Conservatory at Manito Park in Spokane.

I never cease to be amazed at the beauty enclosed in the glass walls of this building.

Here are some images I caught.

My friend Tracy loved taking in all the beauty. 

I met Bess, an English pointer that was very well-behaved amid the plants.

It was a lovely time.
