Deja Vu All Over Again by Weezilou

Deja Vu All Over Again

Leaving the house this morning, this scene across the back yard next door, filled with dandelions, looks the same as it did when we arrived here last May. Do you recognize the view I've photographed twice before as summer was getting underway? http://365project.org/Weezilou/365/2010-05-22 and http://365project.org/Weezilou/365/2010-06-06 It's all as though time has stood still.

Today, though we cleaned house and ran shopping errands, I had some time this afternoon to answer comments and look at pictures. By dinnertime our friends had arrived, and that's going to be the end of my computer time for a few days. Our house guests were college friends of ours (Mary was my roommate), so they know, and expect, I'll take plenty of pictures. I've managed to post a photo daily so far this year, so we'll see how well I can keep this up over the next few days. I hate not being able to reciprocate every comment, but I know you'll understand.

For the first time in days, the weather is cooling & I can hear the foghorn in the distance. At 11:30 PM, the storm is not yet here, though we're expecting it before daybreak. I'll be back in 24 hours to let you know how it all turned out!
this is gorgeous--love all the yellow!! have fun with your friends!! :)

This is just gorgeous! I love the color of the dandelions and how it matches the house. It seems like the storm has calmed quite a bit, but stay safe!
September 4th, 2010  
Yes...I recognize this view!
September 4th, 2010  
I like the colors on the house. The storm is passing our area and since we are so far inland, 60 mi from Boston, we are getting very little rain.
September 4th, 2010

September 4th, 2010

Great photo and love the past references. Enjoy the weekend with your friends.
September 4th, 2010  
Great shot. I hope Earl doesn't do too much damage. I was reading the weather network today, and they had a warning for Lunenberg. It made me think of you guys :). Stay safe! I hope Dill stays inside, too.
September 4th, 2010  
hopefully you don't get too bad of a storm... i love this shot though... makes me feel like i'm laying on my stomach, reading a book... those houses are just darling too.... how much longer do you have at your retreat before you return to the US?
September 4th, 2010  
love all the yellow - the houses and the flowers :)
September 4th, 2010  
Great view (again) but hate the sound of the storm going your direction.... keep safe.
September 4th, 2010  
And still pretty as a picture. Hope you have a great weekend with your friends.
September 4th, 2010

This perspective is really great. I did not recognize it as the same house with the carriage. This id definately a fav!
September 4th, 2010  
Love all the yellow. Makes your picture so cheery. I'm concerned about my package arriving in time to continue traveling with you. There is still time but it's getting tense.
September 4th, 2010  
Oh Louise, this is such a special community that you live in part of the year. The houses look like doll houses. So beautiful...
September 4th, 2010  
The charm is palpable! I love the perspective in this one; the larger dandelions in the front ;o) Enjoy your friends and stay dry :o)
September 4th, 2010  
Now that's a gorgeous shot! The houses are just perfect, perfect colors, perfect trim, just perfect. Thanks for the view from here!
September 4th, 2010  
Wouldn't it be nice if it was May and we had the whole summer in front of us!
September 4th, 2010  
Beautiful! I love all of the yellows. That's funny, it does look like an early summer shot. All of our dandelions in Chicago are long gone!
September 4th, 2010  
what a beautiful view!
September 4th, 2010  
thanks for your sweet words on my pic yesterday :)
September 4th, 2010  
Just love this shot and that small house looks so much like it could be a doll house!
September 4th, 2010  
I yes, I saw this morning on CNN that it was now reaching the coast of Nova Scotia. I hope all goes well!
I love the simplicity of this photo. The yellow flowers makes it seem just so warm and inviting!
That's so awesome that you still keep in touch with your roommate after all these years!!!! how fabulous! I hope that their visit will bring you many happy memories and a wonderful time is result! Have a fabulous day! :D

Today is much cooler here as well. The storm missed us in NH, only a few sprinkles, the garden is actually kind of sad. Love the yellow of the dandelions with the yellow of the house
September 4th, 2010  
Very pretty picture! Looks like a house straight out of a Disney movie! How nice to have a reunion with your old roommate! Hope you can share great memories together.
I do hope the bad weather won´t bother you!
September 4th, 2010

September 4th, 2010

September 4th, 2010  
I LOVE dandelions! Especially with the yellow house! Beautiful.
September 4th, 2010  
How amazing that you still have dandelions! Thanks for the links to look back in time - just adore that clothesline!
September 4th, 2010  
This looks like an ideal place to live, especially with the flowers
September 4th, 2010  
Hope the storm isn;t too bad, and you have a lovely time with your friends.Your picture is very pretty my mum always use to say if dandelions were the only flowers we had , we would think they were very pretty
September 4th, 2010  
Just beautiful. I like the big depth of field.

How did I miss so many of your photos??

I just LOVE the colors of these houses! It looks perfect for the area. I also love your perspective and how you got the dandelions in the foreground. I saw your shot after the hurricane but obviously I missed this one.

The green and the yellow are so beautiful together!!! Such a lovely scene!

I'm expecting Mary Poppins or one of the children of the Sound of Music to come prancing in with a cupcake in hand when I look at this picture! So beautiful!
