On Wed. July 13th I went to see the Bridge of Flowers in Shelburne Falls, Massachusetts. I treated myself to a nice lunch of Fish and Chips on the West End Pub deck overlooking the bridge and the Deerfield River. It was a nice little "staycation" not far from home.

| Hydrangea and astilbe make a nice contrast |
On the way home I stopped at Chapley Water Gardens and bought a rudbeckia just like this one with a "blonde" eye. Very pretty. Still haven't planted it yet. The past week featured a baking heat wave with temps reaching 100+ in the valley after weeks with no rain. The leaves of my hydrangeas actually "burned" in the sun on Saturday. Today finally it is raining thank God. Maybe I'll do some planting this week.
