It's been raining out for almost a week now, think I have mold growing on me already.
The nor'easter has been stalled off the coast, all my plants have been beat down by the rain.
the waves on the bay have been big for the bay, hope to make it to the beach to see how much sand there is on the beach. It could be another summer with a rocky beach.

Last of my Peonies
It's been rainy here in the Northeast and it seems even wetter here on the Cape. A lot of my flowering plants have been getting beaten down by the rain. Yesterday when I got home my last blooming peony plant for the season, the flowers were bent over from the weight of the blooms on the stems and the rain. So I cut a few of the stems and put them in a vase.
For everyone that thinks I don't cut my flower here's proof I do. They were cut to get them off the ground but I almost never cut any of my flowers.

June 2009 in NYC
We were in New York City this past weekend.
We stayed at the Affina 50, our room was on the corner of 50th and Third Ave, large terrace, with a large table and chairs, the living was large with a dinning table for 4, the kitchen was small, but we didn't cook, nice bedroom. The girls were in the suite next to us and had a very large kitchen but didn't have a dining area but did have two terraces,one off the living room and the other off the bedroom.
The views below are from the terrace

Had a great time, saw three plays, Reason to be Pretty - great play, Hair slightly different when I first saw it in 1971, man I hate to say that, ouch, still a good play. The last plat was recommended by Kenneth in the (212), I don't know what he was thinking. Thank you for being a Friend was the name of the play and it sucked. Thought it was just me but other people walking out were saying the same thing. Do not go and waste your time or money. I've seen high school plays that were so much better.
Three great restaurants, Bill's, Cafe Au Du Tua and Becco- all three were great, outstanding.

The new garden on the side of the hosue
The picture below, is in the back corner of the yard, it's how the area I've been working on looked before I ripped it all up and put in the garden.
This is my new shade garden, the bleeding hear has passed, lupins, columbines, spider wart and a hosta are in bloom.
Here are the dark and light Siberian iris, in one of the front gardens.
The first of many day lilies in bloom. This one is the first to bloom.
