Mother nature giveth and mother nature taketh away

We all enjoy the beauty mother nature gives us but then she decides to show her nasty side with destructive storms.   

 I caught an early morning  sunrise.  I haven't seen one is a while.  It only last a minute or two and I miss it if I'm not watching for it.
 My little grape tomato plant has lots of little tomatoes on it.
 Can you smell the lovely scent of the gardenia Coreen?
 This is a mimosa tree blooming on the camp road.
A wild flower blooming on the side of the camp road.
 The morning glory's have taken over the trees.
This is an interesting bush in a neighbor's yard.  Don't know what it is.

A most impressive display as you cross the bridge over the Saugatuck River in Westport...
 In front of the Fairfield Town Hall, a memorial wall remembering those

A poem left at the base of the memorial...
