Summer Holidays

My first day off work and what a great day it was! I knew it would be as soon as I saw this ready-made lineup in the store that brought a grin to my face...

Meet Frog, Hedgehogs(2), and Elephant ~ it seems they are known as "Round Abouts".

The breezy day brought whitecaps, and invigorating sea air...enjoying it as well was a boy and his dogs, and a caped crusader.





Close by is this lovely rose covered cottage that I admire each year when the roses start to bloom ~



When I got home, it was time to pick some cherries ~ One for the bowl, one for me...



After working in the rose garden for awhile fixing some sprinkler heads, and getting wet as usual, I decided to spend some time reading on the deck until supper was ready. I pulled back the lounge cover and...



Good heavens ~ It was Frog!





Isn't that video funny? Frog looked a little concerned about being uncovered in broad daylight so I found an empty green plastic flower pot with holes in the bottom, and gently encouraged frog to hop in. I then took "frog in a pot" and introduced him to his Frog House. I leaned the pot against it. Frog seemed to like the pot with the portholes and was still in there when I went to check later about 9:00 p.m. ~ a bit hard to see, but Frog is in there.



Wasn't that a perfect first day of holidays?
