Hello and welcome to Garden Blogger's blooms day for September. This month has been  hot and on the dryish side with a few scattered showers over the island. My water bill for last month was $123.00 ($62.00USD)  the lowest I have seen for some time. The month before was $530.00 ($265.00 USD). I dread seeing it if it continues to be dry. There is still lots of moisture in the air as I can see heavy dew on the grass in the early morning, that has put a damper on cutting the grass in the morning. September is still an official hurricane month for us and we are still watching systems developing in the Atlantic. I have roof repairs to do and will probably start in another week or so, something I am not looking forward to.

To see more blooming gardens around the globe please go over to Carol at may dreams gardens. Have a great weekend my friends.

Welcome to Garden Bloggers Bloom day. This was started by May Dreams Gardens where garden bloggers from all over the world post photos of what is blooming in their garden on the 15th of every month. So why not take a trip over to see what is happening in her side of the world. The drought continues and the water police is on the prowl. I know nuffing and I see nuffing.

I cannot believe that it is blooming Friday again. Where has the week gone? It seems as if it is hurling down through the time tunnel. Still no rain and am now watering. Some of my potted plants have begun to shrivel up so I must water. Rain rain where are you? Have a great weekend to all you gardeners and garden bloggers.
