Return with the coming of Summer

It's been a while...

What's been going on?

Well for a while there was work...lots of work!  

"What kind of work" you might ask?...."Pay the bills sort of work" I might answer...

Then there has been a lot of unexpected"life events" ...

A turbulent vortex of "stuff" swirling around me causing vehicles , friends and family and one of my dogs all manner of grief...

For the moment things seem to have somewhat settled themselves and now with the coming of summer there is an odd calm to my world. 

"The calm after the storm"

-

Suddenly its summer!

Hot and Humid summer....

The garden has been in for a while and the beet greens, lettuce and tomatoes all seem to be doing well...

Now there are fish to catch, wood in the pile to chop, books on the floor to be read, yard sales to visit and hopefully new old flashlights to be found... 

Here is a picture of a deer that I took the other day as it walked slowly and quietly by the back of the house....

what summer calm!
