Catching Up



It's been a hot humid summer here in southern Maine.
This weather slows me down!

The gardens are flourishing though they could use
some rain.


There's a chance of a thunderstorm
later today.


 D planted peas last month that the
baby woodchucks immediately ate.
D thought that was the end of the peas
 and was quite upset.
What a surprise to see them flourishing.
Well, by eating the tops the woodchucks had
actually made them bush out.
Unfortunately there are 3 different
varieties that have all tangled.
It is difficult to pick them and 
figure out what they are!
A learning experience! 
 
 

The leek flowers are very beautiful!


We try to walk in the evening when it is cooler.


There have been some unusual sunsets!

Hope you are having a good summer and the
weather isn't too oppressive.

it looks beautiful there nan, i do hope the weather cools a bit. baby woodchucks??! i would love to see one!

we live in a place that is near perfect weatherwise, feeling guilty saying that! santa barbara has a mediterranian climate that stays around 70 degrees over 300 days of the year. (i hope i have my facts right, but it is nice all the time!)

Your climate sounds perfect!
