Heute hab ich mal nicht vergessen, daß Samstag ist und bin für #SixOnSaturday durch den Garten gegangen. So viele Rosen blühen grade, da gibt es heute mal Bilder im Doppelpack.
(Namen wie gehabt in der Bildbeschreibung.)

Today I remembered to take pictures for #SixOnSaturday in my garden. But as there are so many lovely roses, I couldn't decide and went for more than just six, I'm afraid.
(Names as usual in the description.)

Eigentlich wollte ich nach dem langen und heißem Arbeitstag mich nur mal hinlege. Zack, drei Stunden geschlafen. Nun sind die Bilder für #SixOnSaturday ohne Sonnenlicht...
Diesmal einige Rosen dabei, aber der Juni ist nun mal auch der Rosenmonat.

After a long and hot day working I just wanted to rest awhile. Three hours later I woke up again.
Now the pictures for #SixOnSaturday are done without sunshine.
Quite a few roses, but then June is the month of roses after all.

Irgendwie ist freie Zeit grad ein Fremdwort. Aber heute Nachmittag reichte es zwischen den Regenschauern für ein paar Stunden im Garten werkeln.
Und natürlich auch für Bilder für #SixOnSaturday , auch wenn die Auswahl schwierig war.

Free time is scarce these days. But between rain showers I spent a few hours in the garden this afternoon.
Besides weeding I got some pictures for #SixOnSaturday , even though the choice wasn't easy.

Tag 3 von 4 auf einem Gartenfest beginnt. Viel Zeit oder auch Kraft bleibt da nicht für den eigenen Garten. Aber für #SixOnSaturday ging es heute morgen mit ner Tasse Tee und der Camera kurz durch den Garten.

Beginning of day 3 of 4 of a garden festival. So there's not much time for my own garden.
But for #SixOnSaturday I went with a cup of tea and camera through the garden this morning.
