Summer is still here

I went in one of my favorite stores today and there, front and center, was Christmas décor -- row, after row. Somehow I just can't seem to get in the mood for Christmas when I look at a scene like this, because I see that summer is still here...and that makes me happy.

Thanks for all your wonderful comments on yesterday's pic. I truly appreciate each and every one of you who follow my project.

Oh yuck. Stay away, Christmas! This, though, is beautiful!

With kids going back to school next week I have to keep reminding myself that summer is still here.

Oh I hate that when it happens, it's not even August yet ... So lovely to see your summer flowers after that piece of news!

[CC Folk]

No, no, no...not ready for Christmas décor yet! It gets earlier and earlier every year. Love your summery floral photo much better!

[Nicole Campbell]

This photo does say summer, it is beautiful

FAV. Love those bright flowers - and I want nothing to do with Christmas just yet. That is really rushing the season.

[Suzanne]

Such a lovely summery image. I'm almost afraid to go to our shops now in case we have the same!

[Granagringa]

This is so pretty and I really like how the lines of the focused flowers seem to parallel each other and that the numbers differ from the lower right and then to the upper left...makes such a pretty composition.

Beautiful flowers and it certainly feel like summer!

[Danette Thompson]

You were in Hobby Lobby! I love Christmas but I also love summer. This would be beautiful on a wall.

[Jessika Panteleios]

Absolutely gorgeous Cindy! I agree, keep enjoying summer and what makes you happy in the present moment. Fav!

@danette- HA! You're right!

Haven't seen Christmas stuff yet, but I guess it's only a matter of time. Lovely picture. Are they echinacea?
