Last night at about the same time as Steemit was launching, my husband and I were walking the Highline in New York City and admiring the Empire State building.

There was also a beautiful sunset between the buildings

Certainly good omens for the future of Steemit! And now that the cycle of 24 hours has begun...I better keep posting!

The 4th of July is always the best time in my own backyard. All the hard work has paid off.

Entrance into backyard. The recent rain has kept the grass nice and green!

A place for the birdies. Daylillies in constant bloom.

Very full and happy garden. In bloom from near to far: Heuchera, creeping phlox (annual), hosta, hachinachloa, astilbe, geranium "Roxanne", goatsbeard, clematis, yarrow, Russian Sage, Oakleaf Hydrangea

Flammy the flamingo says, Come on In! (Unless you're a duck. Please, No Ducks.) Hydrangea arborescens (with white flowers), Mophead Hydrangea
