A late-summer evening in my friend Cat‘s canyon-side garden is serene and lovely, as twilight hides the summer scorch all Texans are seeing in our gardens right now.
This blistering summer has taught us to be crepuscular, more active at twilight, like deer. Cat knows how to make the most of her outdoor lighting.
And how to bring little garden moments indoors to enjoy in the A/C. 🙂
