We have had a disappointing summer thus far; really wet and cool!! The water at cottages is very cold! Well, we’ll take whatever…it’s better than shoveling the white stuff!

Hope things at work settle down and the virus gets under control. Also hope it doesn’t resurge in the fall.

With our now summer, I have often thought of you and your opposite season. What an interesting universe we live in. :-)

No wonder I am feeling cold. We are not expected to make your minimum temperatures for most days. Enjoy your summer.

After the crummy weather you endured, it’s only fair that the good weather is bringing up lots of flowers — even the dandelions!

When Ty was in elementary school, for about 3 years in a row on the evening of June 21st we would head down to the ocean with junk food and watch the sunset…on the longest day. A great memory for me. Our welcoming of the summer ahead.

I think the rain and heat is getting to them. But my recently planted fern, astilbe and hosta are doing well in the shaded recessed area by the front porch.

Yes, today is the longest day and Father’s Day at the same time. It seemed to be light here at 5:30 this morning and the sun won’t set until almost 9 pm. Today, I have enjoyed the wind.. it brought down the humidity as it is from the north and made the 85 degree temperatures manageable.

Have a great week!
