A hot, hot day -- graced with nasturtiums

Last year at this time we couldn't find nasturtiums anywhere.  We did get some
finally in July, but this year we found them early, and planted the beauties.  They
love both tons of rain, and high heat and are flourishing, -- working on taking
over the garden, which will be perfect because we love them.

Also last year all we could get were yellow nasturtiums.  This year, yellow,
orange, red and deep rosy pink. Who knew?  So I hope you enjoy this
image on a hot, hot, rainy evening.

Have a loving your life day.
