Happy dahlias 🌱

The cats weren’t up to anything, according to them.

Three cats on a round rug, looking innocent.

First big harvest for the peppers 🌱

Solid candidate for my weirdest flower of the summer, a category I just decided should exist: this Dalí-melting-clock-ass coneflower 🌱

Posted in 2008 but the pic is a couple years older than that. The smallest kiddo, the one who’s shorter than the fence, graduated from college this May 🥹

Me in ~2006 with my two youngest kids at an amusement park in Chattanooga. One of them has climbed up on something and I have a grip on his shoulder to keep him from escaping. The other one is thinking about climbing up there with him, you can just tell.

Garden pics from this morning, in wildfire-smoky central Ohio 🌱

Butterfly weed about to bloom, with a lot of coreopsis in the blurry background.

Hoary vervain, monkeyflower, little bluestem (the tall grass on the left), some rudbeckia I did not plant, and blue mistflower (shorter plant in front, not blooming yet).

Formerly feral, currently annoyed by the paparazzi.

Gray and white cat, snuggled into a cushioned pet bed, glancing up at me like he just wants to take a dang nap without being photographed.

There are only two options:

Two books: Bicycling Through Paradise and Bicycling Through Dayton.

Can’t resist a good book sale. All of these plus a law book from 1917 for less than $40. ☺️📚

These are probably going to be read and then given to a friend’s Little Free Library. I don’t have room to keep *all* the books. (But I might still keep some of them.)

These are keepers. Some I’ve already read, some are simply good things to have around.

I swear I just divided the daylilies last year. Gotta put it on the list once again, bc I think they’re forming a hedge 🤨🌱

Curved mass of bright yellow daylilies. I need a machete to get through them to the hose reel. It’s back there somewhere. I think.

Oh yeah well I have this pic of him *pitching*

Hoary vervain blooming in a bed of native plants. Acquired bc the name made me laugh. 🌱

Purple-flowering native plant, hoary vervain. Wildflower or insult: you decide.

Still kinda warm out

Home Screen telling me it’s too hot to charge my phone.

Pepper crop is looking abundant 😍🌱

Biquino peppers, they’re so tiny and they’re everywhere.

One small poblano and a few more babies.

Several Ashe County pimentos. First year trying these.

Any excuse to post this bizarre screenshot

Saw someone rollerblading tonight and it made me think of Barry Larkin. It’s possible the Reds take up too much space in my brain.

Happy Father’s Day to my dad, he’s a good one ♥️

You are a TREE frog. This is a deck chair. Not a tree. 🐸

Gray tree frog blending in with a deck chair. I successfully relocated him to a potted tree. (He can move back to the deck chair after today if he really wants to.)

Had to go see how the book is faring. 😂😂😂
