The local fireworks were rained out. We watched the shows in DC, NYC and some of the Boston show. I concluded that TV fireworks are inherently unsatisfactory—you need the scope, smoke, crowds, noise, bugs, ooohs and aaahs to make it real.
I was back to weeding today after the day off yesterday. I measured the pond clarity again a day or so ago with the tape measure extended on the bottom and got seven feet, one foot more than the previous week’s measure.
New blooms: monarda, bind weed, purple clematis.
This one is a Polygonia interrogationis. The common name is Question Mark, why is that, one wonders.
The daylilies are about peak here, and below...
