Wisteria

                              I found this beauty climbing on a rustic barn and I think this is Wisteria flower correct me if I am wrong. I can only dream that I could have these flower in my garden or somewhere in our property hanging around. I could only imagine the things I could make with this flower so gorgeous!!

Be Still

     In New York you see these often in any shapes, size, form and get up. When I see this one at Easter Market in Detroit, I am impressed. It was so hot and he/she is so cool to stand there and showcase her/his moves. The move was slow but graceful, I like it!

     My vacation story is not done yet. Hubby and I decided to take another trip this August and we are looking forward to it. We decided not to go out from our state instead we will enjoy our state has to offer. Eastern Market is a must to go if you happen to come in be in Detroit.

     Last July 4th was our vacation get away in between we have short trip just around lakes or visiting some good restaurants. There are so many county fairs right now so many festivals are coming and a lot of food to eat.So summer for me is not yet done and so many things to do I am out of touch at other social media since I would like to grasp the summer has to offer before we get cold again.

                                               Taken Old Mission Peninsula, Traverse, Michigan

                                The night before July 4th while hubby was cruising down US Hwy 131 we saw these SHOE TREE. This is located at Kalkaska. Michigan.

Then last year here in Detroit, Michigan they started a Catholic Mass Mob every month a mass mob will be held to the church is going to host the event. Before we do the mass mob hubby and I already doing church visits. I told him if it was his first time to visit a church, say a prayer and ask God for three prayer intentions then trust. ^_^ Upper photo taken at Old Mission Peninsula Catholic Church, left is Old St. Mary church, right  is St. Anne De Detroit.

                          My Coneflower or Echinacea in two colors pink and white with a little bit of green and pink on it so light looking that  from afar it looks like pure white.

                                                     SUMMER IS HERE

Beauty In Nature

Why I like summer here in Michigan is because you see the fullness of beauty in nature. Michigan for me is the best state, lol! NO pun intended lol!! We have the best summer weather this year and I can say it with gusto because my flowers are exponentially doing great!!

Tomorrow will be another set of beautiful photos. By the way, in order for me to enjoy this beauty I cut them and bring them inside the house. The house when you have fresh flowers become very welcoming, cozy and more homey. My roses is for my altar....remembering someone who doesn't forget to put offer flowers to Mama Mary....my very own Mama Taling. Every time I see beautiful flowers it brings a lot of memories. ^_^

My Tulips

When I tried to plant plenty of Tulips I get  frustrated because Mr. Bunny felt my garden is a buffet. So Mr Bunny keep on coming until I thought nothing was left. Then a change of domination came to the barn, cats came to rule!! I cannot say I am happy with it but I do miss Mr. Bunny and Mrs. Squirrel, though I see now Mr. Blue Jay whom still very dumb amidst his long winter vacation. The point is my tulips grew this time not too many but at least I know Mr. Bunny didn't eat my tulips.

I am looking forward to see my peach and cherry blossoms this year. Last year was kind of weird it start with a lot of flowers but ended up none!! And I do not have single fruit last year. Hoping this year there will be more fruits just like two years ago. We had a freak snow last Tuesday!! Now it is getting warmer and hope it will be like this till this Easter weekend. Happy Easter to all!!

Ground Orchid

They call this a ground orchid. In person these are huge flowers that is why I do not mind to have my very own ground orchid and it should be in different colors. Found this at Frederick Meijers Garden and Sculpture.

Mardi Gras

One thing if you take a photo of flowers when you see it in the big screen you see little details that makes the flower pretty unique. Each and every flower are created differently. It has different size, shapes, form and color. Now look at this flower this is an orchid but do not know the specific name BUT notice the shape of the flower it is like a lady dancing in Mardi Gras and if you notice on the white petal it has a little spot which is consistent to all flowers. That is what I called the beauty of nature when you see close and find how difference can become a beauty.

What Am I?

For sure I know this is some kind of an orchid but what ever the name this orchid is I do not know. In person this orchid is pretty unique. It has a long petals and on top has this crown like and a yellow "thing" is in the middle. I like to take one of this flower but it is a no no to pick them so I took a photo. Does anyone know this orchids name?

Yellow Orchid

My love of orchids comes from my mother. She used to grow white orchids then in the later years of her life she take care more orchids but this time in other colors and also Bromeliad. I used to watch her put some egg shells and also very careful to water the flowers. When I see orchids it always reminds me of my mother. Hope she was still alive because if she did I will give her orchids in different colors. Missed my mom.

An Orchid

Here is another orchid that everyone would like. The color of this orchid is very common as we can see this in any grocery store displayed in there flower/gift shelf area. But what makes this one is pretty unique is that it is huge. The photo did not give justice to this one but I would like to say this is very pretty huge orchid.

Lavender Orchid

I like to call this Lavender Orchid because of the color of course. The flower is huge and the color for me is perfection because it has the hues of white and lavender/purplish to it.

Chinese Lantern

My Chinese lantern is growing and crawling like crazy. Next year I think I am going to transfer this plant next to the barn so it could climb where ever they want. I am very much impressed of the color these Chinese lantern brings.
