Joy

I think I will only plant zinnias and dahlias next year since they bring me so much joy.   And the deer don't eat zinnias..yet!    A collage in the extras.  

Wet and gloomy today but I liked the way the light looked.

They haven't found the dahlias so maybe they will survive living close to the porch.  Purple and burgundy are blooming now.  The burgundy is really pretty with its almost black middle when it first opens.  A photo in the extras.
