short and clean

To preserve a good balance (after days of wordiness), I'm keeping it nice and short today. The hefty thoughts and musings of the past few days have been replaced with simple bullet points:

Breakfast.






Flowers. (To the commenter who want to plant for the fall, I say yes, there are asters, but do not forget about the H flowers! Helianthus, Helenium and Amsonia Hubrichtii -- the last one doesn't bloom in the fall but has a nice colorful leaf base then. And of course, I have my work horse annuals -- nasturtium, which just keep on giving until the first big frost.)






...With a closeup of Henry the frog (sorry, he just looks like a Henry).






Market (followed by tennis, but there is no need for you to see a photo of a mediocre game, so just market, with tomatoes the size of melons).






Farmer Lee's fields of flowers on the bike ride home.






And supper. With home grown meaty tomatoes of our own.






And for the entire day, I ought to add these running themes:

Working on the porch.

Chasing mosquitoes that we inadvertently let into the porch.

Studying possible discount flights to see if I should take off somewhere before the semester begins in September.

And there you have it. Short, simple and clean.
