I enjoy all the seasons here in Maine, but June takes my breath away. Spring seems slow in coming here, but then all at once, things really start to happen.
The grape vine I planted three years ago should produce some fruit this year.
The wee, dark, Morning Glory seeds I soaked until they sprouted then tucked hopefully into the cold spring soil are starting to grow.
The big front flower bed has been planted, and in a short time will be a riot of color.
The garden friend Brenda created in the back is looking glorious. I recently added this fragrant climbing rose. With any luck there will be no goat escapes and the rose will flourish. Goats like roses best of all the garden treats.
This bed by the front door looks nice. With the grooming studio windows open, warm breezes push lilac-scented air in to delight us.
The peony is covered in buds, soon there will be huge, ruffled flowers to pick.
A lupine and kitten share this garden.
Bravo helps supervise the planting and weeding.
Flirt likes to hop up on the picnic table, she gets a better view of things from there.
Opal spent the night with us last night, snuggling sweetly then waking me up with puppy wiggles and joyous kisses. Puppies make me happy to be alive, and waking up laughing is the best.
She loves being out in the yard, and spent a long time communing with the goats this morning.
The kids are growing by leaps and bounds.
And the wet spring has made the meadow grass grow lush and tall. Deer visit along the edge of the pasture at dusk.
It's the sunshine and the colors and the growing that makes June win me over.
