JUNE 2nd!!!


Flowers in June

I turned a page on my calendar and it now says "June". That means in only 28 more days the year of 2009 will be half gone. How do the days pass so quickly? I learned a few things about the month of June. June was named for the Roman goddess, Juno. It is the month embraced by brides, gardeners, school children and strawberry growers. The month of June has more daylight hours than any of the other months.

For the most part, June is a very pleasant month in our little corner of the world Everything is beautiful and fresh, trees are leafed out, flowers are blooming and the temperature is not too hot and not too cold most days. Vegetable gardens are getting planted, finally, since we have been rain-free for a few days. (We may have rain and storms later today and tomorrow, however!! No storms, please!!) Our lawns are nice and lush and the grass is growing so fast, the gardener is having trouble keeping the mowing done.

We had a nice visit and fried chicken dinner with some friends from AR last evening. I still have some cleaning-up to do in my kitchen as we just kept visiting until bedtime!!! They will be here for a few days.

I wish a great day for everyone.
