Currently what I’m loving about summertime…
I finally have a little garden! My sweet husband made me these raised beds. I love the way they look all neat and contained. I’m growing different kinds of tomatoes, peppers, squash and several herbs. They’re doing really well so far.
I know I’ve said this before, but we LOVE eating our on our back porch. We eat every meal we can out there. We soak up the beauty of the countryside, the quiet, and the slowed pace. But the other thing about this picture that I’m loving are the summer meals, like blt’s with fresh tomatoes, corn on the cob and cantaloupe. It’s simplicity and deliciousness at its finest!
Lastly, I love day trips on our day off to places like Dollywood in Pigeon Forge. We stroll through the park, take in a show or two, ride the train (woohoo! we’re showing our age!), and watch people terrify themselves on the rides we don’t go on anymore!
All because it’s SUMMERTIME!
What do you love about summer?
With love from my summery porch,
Denise



Here in North Alabama this week it is just too hot to even step outside. I am up at six to walk and then I try to walk just before the sun sets in the evening.( My fit bit keeps me going!!) Hopefully more moderate temps will return next week. My family in North Georgia have year round passes for Dollywood. They love it.

I love early summer morning walks. My walks get earlier, too, when the heat is on. I don’t blame you!

Thanks, Whitney. I’m proud of your dad’s demonstration of his love for me. He calls those boxes, “your garden,” because he made them for me. So sweet.
