Lilies, more lilies, and frogs

You'll forgive me for more images of the Asiatic Lilies. It is a miracle. The season is so short, and fall is coming. The fence is working well. I am playing around with both my camera and the cell phone camera. 

July 23rd, I divided a hosta that was getting too much sun. It lasted until Aug. 14th! 

Everything is growing well. We've a fair amount of rain this month, and it is only half done! The nights have cooled off, and there is another storm on the way.

 

Out west, British Columbia is having a heat wave. Out east, they've too much rain for the crops. The wildfires continue across Canada. We aren't complaining about the rain here in Ontario. We've fires in the north, as well. We teachers spent so many years teaching students about Climate Change, reducing dependence upon fossil fuels, and all the Rs: reduce, reuse, recycle. It is defeating.

Enough whining. The froggies have taken over the goldfish pond. I haven't seen Percy goldfish in a couple of days. I'm sure he is in there, happily eating bugs and growing larger. Otherwise, he'd float belly up. I still have to find a home for the little one he tried to eat. 

We've two green frogs, and one large leopard frog who have taken up residence. 

My ankle is better, I hung out laundry.

Putting together a couple of levels of the water fountain, I got the new pump running, and eliminated some mosquito larvae. The kids are coming Friday for a sleepover, and to celebrate Caitlin's birthday, which is on the 16th. The girls go off to summer camp next week.
