If You Are a Dreamer

 Streets Alive! Doors of Downtown Orillia

Celebrating outdoor art and creativity, Orillia area artists have repurposed old doors that are now on display (until October 12, 2015) on the city's main downtown street (Mississauga Street).

 "If You Are A Dreamer" by David Giannunzio and Erin Demery

This is one of the doors. I will post a few others later.

The door is open

Written on the door:
If you are a dreamer come in
If you are a dreamer a wisher a liar
A hoper a prayer a magic bean buyer
If you're a pretender come sit by my fire
For we have some flax golden tales to spin
Come in!
Come in!
~Shel Silverstein

Garden Flowers in Bloom

 Hollyhocks

An old-fashioned flower that reseeds itself in some of the most delightful places...and sometimes not. This plant is in a great spot.

 Balloon Flower

The bud below the three blossoms shows you how this flower got it's name.

Purple coneflowers

I don't think it's possible to plant too many of these! They bloom for a long period and insects LOVE them for their nectar, especially butterflies.
