After a long, cold Spring, we are suddenly having August.
The past few days have been extremely hot and muggy.

Today was, of necessity, a long day of outdoor projects. My hired helper came for four hours this afternoon, and I started two hours before he arrived. I'm happy - and a little surprised - that I stayed awake long enough to do the evening chores at the regular time.

Before I call it a night, I just want to share a few recent snaps.
Very green, most of them.

| Comfrey |
And one, orange :)

It's exciting to see perennials I planted last year, returning.
 |
| Hyssop |
And it's always a special joy to see beloved native plants again.

| Columbine |
 |
| Violets and Columbine |
Some of the most interesting plants appear in the Spring.

| Jack in the Pulpit |
And now, goodnight, dear readers.
I hope the weather is pleasant where you are!
