June precipitation totals are not looking good, perhaps foreshadowing a hot, dry summer.
We have a heat warning, and I'm managing a cold. I was coughing much of the night. Happily JB sleeps through that. It's fun, too, sitting outside in the humidity, quietly reading, refraining from chores, then taking a quick dip in the kiddie pool!
That said, the berries are amazing! We're on box #3.
These are from a farm just 6 km down the highway, shop locavore! We had some BBQd ribs, also from down the highway. Ironically, someone wants me to review a book on eating vegan. I declined. It's difficult enough not cooking with dairy, yeast or eggs!
The evergreen out front is a bit droopy.


The catalpa tree is in full blossom. It hosts so many bugs.







Then, there is the clematis. Originally, there was a small, fake well beside it, but it hid the clematis from the sunshine. It was removed, when we had to replace the well intake line one winter. The clematis has thrived.


I have a newish rose plant.


The ants knew rain was coming.
