But it has grown a little milder here now, while it is growing cooler where you live. Still, winter will probably come back in March here. Spring is arriving slowly.(I love the photo of the shadowy hill under the trees).<br />Isn't it fantastic, this communication we have today? When I was a young girl (or teenager!) I had pen-friends all over the world, and it took some time to communicate - even in an "air-mail" - and now it takes only seconds to know how you are in New Zealand! I never stop being enthusiastic about this global net! My dear grandmother would have considered it to be witchcraft!<br />Cheers <br />GretheThyrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06784021614587470421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2659897268236249304.post-82046692521809144742011-02-07T20:12:37.413+13:002011-02-07T20:12:37.413+13:00Yes, sticking to the shadows, that's exactly w...Yes, sticking to the shadows, that's exactly what I find myself doing in these hot days. I'm thankful for every tree that lines the pathways. I like the way you have captured the subtle changes in the hydrangeas.Juliethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01542985048406828693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2659897268236249304.post-52935488681491010152011-02-07T18:09:41.976+13:002011-02-07T18:09:41.976+13:00Was it as hot there as here? 36 degrees, too hot t...Was it as hot there as here? 36 degrees, too hot to do anything except flop down with a book and turn the heat pump on (it's only in one room, when I went upstairs to bed the heat made sleeping very difficult)Catherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08236329216260906624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2659897268236249304.post-53204233857020797742011-02-07T17:47:46.043+13:002011-02-07T17:47:46.043+13:00Such lovely pictures on your hot day, Joan.

It looks like a fun celebration. <br /><br />I am yearning for the colors of summer right now looking at your hydrangea, both in the post and your heading. So lush. We had four more inches of snow this morning, but, February means change will come soon here as well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
