A thunderhead rolled over the area earlier this week, dropping about a thimble full of rain.

Here is a closer look at it.  Sharp-eyed viewers might notice a photobombing bumblebee to the left of the cloud.

A white rose bush, growing in a cemetery that I like to walk through on occasion.

I walked by a pond, in a city park of all places.

Earlier this season I was surprised to see a white Foxglove growing out of that pot with all the mixed flowers.

I was able to follow it's growth cycle from beginning to end.

The Foxglove's Latin name is Digitalis.

They are spring time only?

They flowered throughout the month of July.  I cut the old flower heads off and now they are just clumps of green growth.  I don't think that they will send up more flowers for this year.  They will die back in winter, but will return next spring, in late May or early June.

Be careful on your future walks, @FISH .  Rumors are Deshaun Watson is headed to the Eagles.
Philly has it's own troubles. Mr. Watson should stay in Texas @juan .

A white rose bush, a white Foxglove, your Sweet William flowers, a pond and clouds. Thanks @Rikki Gins .
I was out in my back yard, watering my plants. It is after 8 PM and the temperature is 89. I have not posted photos for some time. I was under the weather with a summer stomach.
I hope to get back in the saddle again.

No.  Awhile back, before all the smoke moved in.
