This is my favorite Sweet Pea in the garden at the moment:
I love it's delicate color.
Alongside it, in the shadowy undergrowth is a little Dianthus that you could almost miss if you weren't paying attention.
The Bunny Tail grass is crowding it at bit too, but at this point, I'll take what I can get of enthusiastic plants.
All the seeds I planted are up and growing now. My main job is keeping dogs and cats out of the beds till everything gets strong enough to hold its own. The peach tree is covered with golf ball sized fuzz covered fruits. And this year, my neighbor's apricot tree is loaded with fruit and several branches are hanging over on our side of the fence. I'm watching them daily for any sign of ripeness. They will be ready to eat much sooner than those peaches I can tell you that much.
Oh how I love summer fruits!
I found some wonderful music in of all places, a soundtrack from a video game...
Something called 'Halo 2'. My son tells me it's a 'shoot 'em up' game. I don't know about the game, but the music is beautiful. You can hear samples here:

I sure hope I got that link right this time. I miss Bloggar. It was so easy to add a link!
Anyway. That's it from here today.
(Sweet Peas and techno/trance/hard rock music.... Yeah, like they go together so smoothly in your twisted little world.)
Okay, next time we'll let you pick the photos and music.
(You're on.)
Fine.
