Cutting the grass

I was cutting the grass.
Here is my phone after working.
It seems to me that the sim card is still whole.
I will look for some old phone from the house.
Don't call me now.

Chelsea 2011 comments

I found it all, the soil, the sun and the rain. It was thundering every now and then. Sun shined behind clouds and sometimes the sky was clear.  Light was absolutely fabulous after rain. Weather was rather windy. Plants bent when it was blowing on and because of heavy raindrops. I get good connection with the soil also. I was sitting on the ground when I took photos. This I learned from professionals.

These Chelsea gardens are defying nature's way
''Looked at one way, this is the climax of the gardening year. Looked at another way, though, it's almost the antithesis of what gardening is about. For if gardening is about understanding the soil, adapting to the terrain and working with the seasons, the Chelsea Flower Show defies it.''
