Hope you had a happy solstice
Jun. 22nd, 2008 06:33 pmTo celebrate the longest day of the year we set out with a friend and her two dogs to a nice leisurely four hour walk through the woods near our hometown. Unfortunately, there were still places in the woods where the aftermath of Hurricane Kyril from January 2007 were very evident. But it was a beautiful trip and apart from the innumerous mosquito bites I got, humans and dogs enjoyed the trip very much.
Bright skies where there were canopied trees before

Wood flowers

Bathing time in the woods

How to get a water mad dog out of the rivulet?

What is one to say about June, the time of perfect young summer, the fulfillment of the promise of the earlier months, and with as yet no sign to remind one that its fresh young beauty will ever fade. ~Gertrude Jekyll
Is it just me or did this June slip through our hands sooner than the previous months? I have been doing so many things and once I stop and turn it is already the end of June and thus the eginning of summer. At last, the feeling says, relief flooding me but on the other hand I wish all those lazy hours in front of the sewing machine in winter back again. Oh well; winter comes sooner than we think.
