I love the time when, after weeks of mist and rain, the sun eases itself into a day. The sky is lovely, but the air is still barely-warm, and so refreshing, rather than a blast-furnace effect of all-out sun.
A couple of days ago, this happened right before dinnertime.
Out I went to the neighborhood nursery with camera in hand, and an appreciation for being able to inhale
sweet, fresh air without getting wet.

Okay, this peony is past its prime,

These Foxglove were at the nursery, even though right now
they are in wild profusion along the trails:

SPANISH lavender, but pretty nonetheless. Funny, I was just there and did not see the equipment you saw. Did see the watering cans, though, and loved them.
What sights in a neighboring nursery! Although I loved every single photo, I really enjoyed the watering cans bouquet!
