Heat, Rain & Stars in the Garden

 


So how is everyone's summer going? It's been hot and rainy in our neck of the woods and we're getting a little bored with being inside all of the time. At least the AC is working.





The flowers seem to be very happy.





Ivy's loves the hot weather so she's been camping out on the patio, researching ideas for this year's spooky season. Halloween is only 96 days away and will be here before we know it! 






Burt's been practicing his scare techniques.





The pumpkins are still trying to attract pollinators.





On one of the vines there is a tiny pumpkin starting to grow. Unless the seeds got mixed up, then it might be a squash.






His Madness and I went out for a walk last night to look for the northern lights. We didn't see anything resembling the aurora borealis but we did notice about a dozen meteors! There's one in the upper right hand corner of this photo, the white streak that looks like a backward comma.    






Looks like Ivy has forgiven Burt for interrupting her shopping. Maybe they should try looking for the northern lights tonight, visibility is supposed to be best between 2am and 4am. I'm definitely going to give it a pass. 


Thanks for stopping by!

See you soon.
