Hot but there are waterlilies July 12, 2015

It has been cool this year. There have been hot moments, but they have been rare. Just this last week I was wearing a jacket on our morning walks. The temperature was down in the 50's. I was great.

Today it is hot, with temperatures approaching 90 with humidity to match. I did a cycle of weeding at 1:00 and the sweat was dripping off my nose after 20 minutes. Maybe I will go out again.

The waterlilies have put on a show this last month. Hardly a day goes by without one blooming. Here are today's pictures.





And the frogs are back. They are mail order, but who is counting. This was from a week ago.



I do regret that the edge of the pond is not very stable at the moment. That is a project for the fall and probably for professionals.

I hope there are some of you out there who are looking at this.
