Field Notes- Thursday, June 8th. Another dark wet Day.


 Not my garden. I could go out and shoot pictures of the Iris- regular and Siberian blooming right now in the yard- the Siberian out in the weeds- where I tossed them after digging them out of the ornamental beds.  Like Putin...they are always invading territory that isn't theirs.

Tons of flowers on the blackberry bushes.  Finally some berries???? No infant Peaches or Plums.

Ferns are enjoying this wet cloudy cool weather.  Especially the Leggy Ones- with the black stems and lovely ferny tops.  I spent extra buying them......

Visit from the Twins Dad and the big white fluffy DOG.  To check in with us.  I mentioned if he was having people over for hamburgers on the grill for the 4th. we would ACCEPT an invitation this year..... it amazed me how HAPPY that made him.

He mentioned his stove BROKE and he has been cooking on a borrowed set of burners from the Library Collection of Interesting Things.   For three weeks.  I once borrowed the Sock Mending Kit and mended my socks.  I think he is waiting for delivery of the new stove.  He wanted propane. So the wait.

Our sky is clear here.... none of the smoke New York City has (knock wood).......I was thinking the Heavy European Planes might have to land up north in Maine....like they did during 911 because of no visibility in the New York airports.  That happened after 5pm and I was no longer watching TV news.

That Boyfriend Candidate book was at the bottom of a pile. I was REALLY happy to see it.  Am reading it.......just as delightful the third time around.  Lunch with my neighborhood best friend at 11:30.

I wish my library had a Collection of Interesting Things. A neighboring county library has a long arm quilter and a 3D printer, for use there, not to check out. :)
