Summer officially arrived in my time zone – Eastern Standard Daylight Savings – at 11:54 am. This day, the first, has been perfectly perfect. During Journal Club, I wrote:
The sky’s been a study…the wind moving clouds in/around. Lovely and ever-changing. Now, the sun’s out and the sky is blue tho’ the wind’s still evident …resting a bit, I suspect. Shortly before the arrival of the Summer Solstice, I took a walk; the Day Lily are at peak bloom. Delightful !
And yes, I’d be the happiest camper in these parts if today’s preview was a promise of the summer days to come. But alas, I’ve lived in these parts with way too many summers that were just plain wretched: hot and humid! I took a peek at next week’s weather… Yep! projected forecast: Hot! Humid. Low 90s. Yuk!
Tho, who knows, Mother Nature may just decide otherwise…
Regardless, my plan is to enjoy each day to its fullest…for I am grateful that I am around to do so!
Enjoy this first weekend of Summer 2019!
Cheers~
Gorgeous here today as well! A great start to the official summer season.

Welcome summer. We began the day with an early morning thunderstorm followed by a sunny but slightly humid day. But oh the light in the evenings is so nice.

Summer has never been my favorite season either. But, after shoveling snow and slogging through a very wet yard all spring ……….I welcome a bit of dry, hot weather.

Here too HONORE! My good pal had her baby yesterday. She’s 40 and it was a real chore to get through that pregnancy. The baby is Charlotte and darling

It was truly a glorious entrance to summer – and yesterday was mighty fine as well! And, today (Sunday) we have clear skies as well! I think this is the first weekend in months that has been rain-free!

So nice to see that lovely bed of flowering day lilies … they look super en masse. That’s a great intro to summer, your blue sky. Over here, it’s cool for summer (59F) and, yep, you’ve guessed it, raining. But we celebrate the longer evenings nevertheless! Me, I love hot and humid. I will continue to enjoy your summer vicariously :).

We had an unusual start to summer and now the grey and cool that is typical of June has returned. Not complaining at all.

I love when flowers occupy that space between the sidewalk and the road. Summer weather-you never know what it’s going to be like-the convertible top will be down as long as it’s not raining!
