Summer in Full Bloom



Summer is in full bloom in eastern New Mexico, everything is so beautiful!

While we were looking for yard sales Saturday,  I spent most of my time enjoying the blooms of late summer....
so, I took a few photo's and would like to share them with you.
The grasses are all in bloom...

Cactus......
and roses......

Grow side by side!

I love the bright yellow.....

colors of late summer...

In New Mexico, this is the time of year that green chili's are harvested and roasted....even a few yellow ones.




Vines are covering every surface...

and wild flowers are in huge mounds...





I am going to enjoy the lasts blooms of summer....

as long as I can.....
