how is it monday again?
My days are getting away from me here. I turn around and another week is gone and I don't think I've done anything exciting (or even mildly non-boring) to tell you about.
My hydrangeas were a very blue blue this year (no pinkish purple tint at all.) Of course, now they're *dead* from the heat, but they were gorgeous while they were with me.

We're on the east coast so the sun doesn't set over the water, but the sky was doing interesting things this year. View from the second floor of the house.

It was rainy and cool at the beginning of the week (and 100 by the end when we were packing up the whole blasted place, of course) so we went shopping. We barely had room to get ourselves and our loot back home. (In my defense, this *is* the result of 4 women grabbing bargains for their entire families, plus 3 teenage girls with birthday money to burn, but yes, it is ridiculous. Welcome to Beach Week.)
