My yesterday pictures...signs of the end of summer :(

Yesterday's yard tour

fun drive with a bunch of mini cooper drivers

colorful little bug on my deck yesterday

I am about ready to stop posting here. I wrote my piece and then posted one picture, wanting to post a second and everything, the whole thread just disappeared. I will continue to visit to see yours, but done with trying to post anything.

Friend's husband enjoying living by the lake, this morning.

Murraysmom, take a break, but don't stop posting altogether...please? I went a few months without being able to post photos, then suddenly I was able to post again. Houzz must be playing around with changes right now because one day, the pictures are tiny and another day, the pictures are normal. Try again in a week or two.

Murraysmom- please don't give up completely. As Fun suggested take a break but please return. I do so enjoy your photos.

Murraysmom...sending you an email.

Murraysmom, I have noticed several people mention having a problem posting recently. Hope this issue is resolved soon. Please stay, I enjoy your posts.

maire.....that's a nymph of the Orange Assassin Bug, Pselliopus barberi. Pretty little thing, but it and its adult stage can stab the dickens out of you.

OK, thanks for the vote of confidence. I will give it another try.

This (if it works) is my Sweet Autumn clematis. I got it last year. This year it doubled in size! It's just starting to flower but it is loaded with buds. I can't wait to see it in all its glory.

Last year.

I will try to put this year's in the next post.

This year's.

Aaaarrrrgggghhhh

Love sweet Autumn clematis.! Hope you are able to take a picture sideways or not when it is in full bloom. I just copy and paste to Microsoft word whenever a picture is sideways and then I turn it. It works for me anyway.

My new planters

Rhizo - thank you for identifying that bug for me. I've never seen one before but it certainly has an interesting color combination.

I've learned and always remind my kids NOT to touch any bug - you just never know what they might be.

Thanks again, Maire

Geraniums finally blooming. I just moved them as the massive African marigolds were growing overtop of them.

Murraysmom, I've had trouble posting the past few days as well.

When I make a post and a pic, nothing shows up, BUT if I refresh the page, it's all there.

Please try again, refreshing the page.

Jasdip, or anyone, how do you refresh the page?

I just refreshed the page and it is still sideways.

Yeonassky, only Houzz is making it sideways. The picture is right side up everywhere else I have posted it.

And I will try again when this year's is in full bloom.

Murraysmom- the photos that I originally wanted to post all came up sideways today too. I finally gave up and tried a different picture - and it posted correctly. I didn't do anything special either.

You can always take a screen shot of your own photo right side up and then post that...should not be rotated then.

jtc....refresh=reload On your bar, mines top of my screen...there's a arrow on a circle...hit that...mine says reload.
