It’s nearly July, but I think it was worth the wait to see the Siberian Irises in full bloom. Do you agree?
Worth The Wait
Blue Iris
My favorite irises are about to bloom. The Siberian Iris.
The first clematis blossom opened this week. The plant died back quite a bit after our record cold winter. It only has a handful of buds this year.
I spotted our friend “Chippy” filling up his cheeks under our neighbor’s bird feeder a few nights ago.
We see deer in our yard every day now. Sometimes twice or three times a day. The deer repellent has kept them away from my Asiatic lilies until a couple of days ago. They ate all but two buds. 😦
The fog moved out this morning and we actually had an 80 degree day with peeks of sunshine. We are hoping for another warm day tomorrow. Fingers crossed.
Happy Father’s Day
Happy Father’s Day!
He never looks for praises
He’s never one to boast
He just goes on quietly working
For those he loves the most
His dreams are seldom spoken
His wants are very few
And most of the time his worries
Will go unspoken too
He’s there…. A firm foundation
Through all our storms of life
A sturdy hand to hold to
In times of stress and strife
A true friend we can turn to
When times are good or bad
One of our greatest blessings,
The man that we call Dad.
