Mr. Sun - bring it on!!!!

It's here, offically, genuinely, beautifully here! Summer, with it's sunshine but also sweltering humidity -(blahhh-something you non-Canadians wouldn't expect we get up here.), and omg - mosquitoes the size of Godzilla!!! But it's here and after a long, cold,  snowy and pretty much, an unproductive winter, I won't complain that it's over 85 degrees F. in our apartment most days.

My hatchling has completed her first year of high school -YAY!!!, and exams; and made the honour roll...(((((applause)))), and we're settling into our new rodent-free apartment quite nicely and I. AM. SO. HAPPY!

.
We've been spending evenings on our back deck with this view...



Hatchling drumming and welcoming in summer at our Soltice celebration, because that's how we roll!





Clusters of local fruit farms are so so so close to my home, and not 1, not 2, but 3 local Farmer's Markets!!
Consuming as much as possible of the Mother Earth's gifts...







And acres of pick-your-own-fruit fields. The thing I miss most about having a car is bringing my hatchling picking fruit. So every chance I get to hitch a ride with someone, I go for it!








Me & hatchling hanging out and lounging and lunching with loved ones at their home...we were treated like royalty...(I felt like I was on a retreat!)




And here's me, a little out of my element, but loving it just the same. I'm more attracted to the organic beaches and polluted waters of Lake Erie...lol


*peace & prayers to the Great Spirit in the summer sky to help me find an affordable air conditioner!!!

Way to go with your summer solstice celebration! I am so happy to hear that you and your hatchling are sunning it up and having fun. We had a full weekend of sun here too and it was marvellous. What a fabulous change.
