If you squint you can see it...

 

...it's tiny but it's my first...

 

...I've tried growing them before with no success,  this is my first artichoke.  June was a bit cool, but with the fantastic weather we've had in the past couple of weeks, the garden has exploded...

 

 

...the yellow zucchini...

 

 

...peas...

 

 

...and sweet corn have all taken off.

 

 

...puppy keeping cool.

 



 

 

 

 



 



 

 

Summer

Summer has arrived...

 

...finally after what seemed like a month of cool and rainy weather...

 

 

...summer has arrived...

 

and the temperature hit the mid thirties in Langley today.  The shady trails didn't seem much cooler so Nellie and my run was more like a walk today... 

 

 

 

 

... I plan to spend the rest of day in the shade with a good book and cold beverage or two.  I hope you are enjoying the weekend.  Happy Canada Day.
