Everything is blooming

Almost everything is blooming, and it will continue to be more spectacular throughout the summer. The weather is so sporadic in Georgia. I would dare say that we have had no more than on inch of rain in the last twenty days. That is horrible for the plants and the grass. I don't really care about the later not growing, as I am in charge of cutting a good portion of it. Oh well, the good side of it is there has been a noticeable decrease in the infestation of Japanese beetles that are usually swarming this time of year. The greenhouse is full of things. I have a tendency of taking the variety of plants we take care of for granted. That is, until someone comes over and reminds me that the hard work is worth it. It is very hot for the beginning of June, with temperatures topping out at around 97 for the past three days. I believe a person must be at least partially masochistic to endure the hot southern summer......The girls are doing good, they are enjoying the hot weather. I wish we had more time to let them experience other places and things, but our vacation time is few and far between around here. They are getting older and it will be time to take them to the beach or the desert. Maybe in the fall. Anna starts pre-k this August, which will be an interesting change. It will definitely be a good thing financially. Oh daycare expenses. Cathrine will be starting next year. Hard to believe........The highlight of the week is definitely the fuscia. It is a very interesting plant with complex, highly contrasting blooms. It is a prolific, low maintenance bloomer. A lot of the crepe myrtles are blooming.....Alright I am done.
