The June Scene

Hello again Dear Friends!

I thought I would share the ongoing saga of my garden with you. The past couple weeks we have continued to have thundershowers almost daily, which is very unusual for this time of year in Oregon. The nice thing about it is that it does save on some watering! ;-}

Right now my roses are the stars of the show and the clematis are waning. Some of the clematis will bloom again later, though not as profusely as the first bloom of the season. Other perennials are wonderful supporting actors, just blooming their little hearts out--filling in and contrasting nicely in color and shape to the roses. I just love them all!

Of course, running through all the flower beds, I have strawberries, which are in full production. Everyday my Grandson Gil harvests some to snack on and share with the rest of us (strawberry waffles--yum!).

I made a slide show of the current production. Hope you enjoy it! There's even a little shot of Gil, the strawberry hunter, at the end.

Gardening is a good worship and meditation time for me. Gil's scripture memory verse for this past Sunday echoes my sentiments: "I will bless the LORD at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth." Psalm 34:1 (NKJV)

God bless you all this day!
