So many beautiful flowers are blooming in my garden today. I hope you enjoy them. It was beginning to get dark as we photographed these, and it's amazing that the colors are as vivid as they are.

This is our first summer as empty nesters and we decided to give our home a much needed face-lift, in and out. We've never tried any real gardening or landscape design before except for planting a shrub here and there and, sadly, most of them died before the first year was out. But, we have been so inspired by the "spaces" that we've seen here that we wanted to try creating some garden beauty for ourselves.

Because my health doesn't permit me to spend a lot of time outside, we decided to begin with a simple plan. The idea for the first year is to start small and then each year add to the existing gardens as well as create new ones. I love all kinds of bright colors and and we tried to concentrate on perennials so that next spring (hopefully we will have a nice beginning all ready to expand.

We have been inspired and learned so much from this community already and welcome any suggestions. Thank you!

Howdy Y'all...Welcome to our little piece of heaven - right here in East Tennessee. This is our excape from the never ending battle to survive. We unwind here! We tune out the rest of the world and relax in "Our Back Yard". Hope you enjoy!
