Someplace, a little one is missing their prized yellow digger. 🏗️

If this sounds like the source of tears in your vicinity, try looking on the sea wall across from the pink shed on #BuckroeBeach.

Lantana is the happy maker.

Look at it and just try not to smile.

It's the jet ski of flowers.

The fact that your photos are already processed has you well ahead of the pack.

If I had 💸 for every wedding where the photographer went AWOL I'd be Jeff Bezos.

Good for you!

Thank goodness the 🌊 Virginia Beach Fall Gardening Festival 🏵️ is next weekend 🐈‍⬛ #Caturday 4 October from 10-3.

This weekend would have been a wet, miserable slog.

I'm looking forward to getting my flower show fix and being bitten by many native plants.

It's quite savvy, though.

Your flowers will be both better and cheaper. It's far less stress creating for a Wednesday than a Caturday. The delivery schedules with the wholesalers will work much better for you.

Venues tend to be far more affordable midweek, too.

Y'all, a ladybug hitched home on my gardenia and I feel like I won the lottery. 😺🐞💐

Also, the Native Plant Sale down at Bluebird Gap Farm will save you some serious money over the big box stores.

Sudden feeling like there's even less of an excuse for avoiding a bit of a stroll...

Starting tomorrow, get ready to enjoy more walking during the Walk Zone pilot for the 200 Block of King Street.

We're creating a space for all to enjoy everything Old Town has to offer by temporarily expanding the King Street Walk Zone until September 30.

It was awesome to spot Explorer roses on a local wholesaler's #ValentinesDay pre book.

They tend to be longer lived, a nicer hue of red, and downright just better than Freedom roses.

It's hard to believe that this little business got started 7 years ago.

A heartfelt thank you to all who have helped along the way!
