Valerie’s family is here to pick up Maggie at camp, and Alison’s family is also here on vacation. Tomorrow all of us are going to Southwest Harbor, ME to visit Judy’s brother Ken and his family. That’s a lot of families.
Yesterday Alison, Lily and I hiked from here to the top of Gile Mt. tower and back, about seven miles. Today’s hike up Mt. Cube got cancelled for threatening weather [and fatigue].
Anna and Judy did dinner here last night. Anna is freshly home from cooking school in France and did onion tarts and chicken in peppers and tomatoes. We also had corn, strawberry shortcake by Judy, and watermelon brought by Lois and Tony. The corn, tomatoes, peppers all came out of the veggie garden. We all considered Anna’s effort to indicate honor student credentials. Lucy adopted a pet beetle.
New blooms: clematis on the deck, first aster, more hollyhocks, more lilies, more phlox.
Red Hollyhocks.
Intrepid Troopers.
