Shame there's no smelly-vision

Shame there's no smelly-vision&
We've just had a shower of rain, only light, but one that's made the earth smell - I'm sure you know what I mean - that distinctive scent of warmth and growth that's unique to this time of year.

The lilacs as well, have a heady perfume...the white one's a very old bush planted before we moved here so the flowers are small...a good prune would probably improve it - I'll need Les' help as it's beyond my
reach from step ladders. The other lilac is just that...a perfect shade of lilac.

Lilacs are beautiful.
We have one or two around our garden.
We've had rain for three days now.. and everything looks so lush! Sal;-)

What a yummy smell lilacs have! I can smell them just from looking at your photo. We also have the wonderful summer rain smell here in Holland after the heat of last week. It is the smell of heaven!
