Smack-Dab!

 How is your summer going?

It's been hot and wet over here,

unlike hot and dry in some areas.

The unstoppable devastating fires in Alberta are sobering and tragic!

July is at it's end and I have not much to share.

It went by so very fast even though I really tried to slow things down.

I'll let these few snaps tell the rest of the story:

Saskatoon Berry picking with dear friends

There may be some jams and pies in my future?

Swan Lake - in my back yard!

Come with me on my walk ... beautiful Stratford

July kittens, swims, bird watching, and picnics on the deck!

The best of days!

Lavender Farm outing with a friend

And now she's NINE!!!

Family gathering at the "home" farm

Binding some love into this quilt for a beloved 

sister's granddaughter.

Ice-cream on the blue bench. A fun outing!

We are smack-dab in the middle of summer right now.

Looking forward to August with lots of Grammie time to come.

Let's have a "slow" August and make this summer last.

Till next time ... pausing to breath and to enjoy these summer days. What a privilege this is ...
