What a blessing this weather is.  Today it was in the low 60s as I first stepped out into the Garden, and it was so lovely.  We visited our friends @greenscapegardens_stl yesterday to outfit a bit of a porch refresh.  We had such a good time at Jennifer's talk @mobotgarden a few weeks ago that we had to do a Fall Refresh of our front porch.

We spent much of the late morning picking out our "Thrillers, Fillers and Spillers" for the pots.  Such a fun and beautiful way to begin the Fall season.  I know Summer is still here but as an old educator I cannot help but believe that Fall begins the day the kiddos head back to school!  Labor Day is still my official first day of Fall!  

We had a lovely day celebrating creation.  Wherever we find ourselves there is beauty to behold, drawing us in.  Drawing us deeper, drawing us to what is indeed holy and increasing our longing for creation as it was meant to be.  Drawing us to the Creator! 

A beautiful day to celebrate creation! Enjoy the journey and behold the beauty this last Wednesday of August.  That's all the news from here in the Carondelet Garden.
