Brutal and good at the same time.
Now that I look at my phone camera,
I see I was really busy.
But I am exhausted....
the weather has been typical for Delaware.
Warm to Hot and HUMID.
The mornings and evenings are usually beautiful.
We usually get to the beach (10 min away) several times a week in the summer.
I got there once.
My garden is usually at full tilt and my canner fired up.
Instead the garden had blight because of neglect.

At least one of the grands got to
enjoy the few blueberries that did not
get eaten by the cardinals.
Most of the time was spent with Grands as one
daddy worked with training soldiers


and the other fought cancer.
Really, it was a good summer, considering.
