So far, the summer is dry and hot. Yes, it is still summer and will be for at least another month. I notice how the plant-life is adapting to this near-fatal summer. Mother nature sending her energy to the next generation: fruit and berries in over-abundance.

- My Viburnum is ready for Christmas.
The evergreens send tiny green berries out into the world. - Prolific Buck-thorn! Please send Cardinals, Orchard Oriels and even the Grackles to feast on these berries.
- Only the Basil gave up the ghost, despite my nurturing. I will miss you this winter, beloved basil.
My morning walks with Loved-One are in the near-dark; dawn greats us as we reach our destination. School buses goes by, practicing new routes; school will be in session soon. I find myself holding summer close, unprepared to move to the next season. Are you ready?
