Happy Summer Solstice

Yes indeed…The longest day!! It was amazing for it to still be so bright after 9:00pm tonight! I love these long summer days and nights. It is beautiful sunny days and long bright evenings like today that get me through the long dark winter here in Ohio.  I am already storing up as much as I can!!

To welcome Summer today we went creeking

  1. A happy day to you too! Looks like the perfect way to welcome the summer.

  2. where were you creeking at? I’m jealous of all the plant material you can collect from your yard!

    Your treasures look wonderful! Like Sheila above says, the material you can collect in your yard is awesome -I am just imagining what sort of beautiful backyard you have! I have a regular old suburban backyard, but I have worked hard to make it our little retreat, so we have a woodsy area, and a patio, and bird feeders, and a pond, so we see some wild life too!
    I didn’t do anything special to welcome summer, I wish I had. Your post was so nice to read :-)
