  1. Hi Jack. Your garden is so beautiful and the view of Lake Michigan is incredible.
    If you have some problem with the Google translation in my Blog, try to open the comments on a post, and the translation program will open. I don´t know why it is like this.
    Have a nice day/ Hans

  2. The garden is looking really great. And the view... I am certainly jealous. Would the metal sculptures be one of yours?

  3. What a colourful garden you have now! And what a big difference between last month's and current landscape! Even if I'm an admirer of your winter garden...

  5. Hi Jack. I'm sorry that the translation don´t works yet. I have tried to add another translation program to my Blog, hope it works better now.
    If that does not work, copy the URL for my blog and paste into Google and search. Where we can usually translate the whole blog. Thats the way I do when I read a blog in Portuguese.
    Hope it works.
    Storms in our area are very rare, we were not prepared for it. I do not think it stormed so in 100 years before in this area.
    Today it is a really hot day here in nothern Sweden, +30 celcius.
    Have a nice day.

  6. Hi Jack: Just looking at your photos caused me to sigh and my blood pressure to drop (not that it's terribly high to start with). I know how peaceful the Lake Michigan landscape is, and your flowers and gardens are perfect for the setting. Wonderful getaway destination when it's too hot inland!
