Camp Visitation.

7-10-11 VERMONT: The benches are done, three rebuilt and repainted, one only repainted. They are all back in their usual habitats and looking parkish. We had another late night rain, 0.65 inches, to which, I was oblivious until I saw the gauge in the morning.

I have kept up with weeding, pruning, staking and veggie, mostly tomato, care. The Swiss chard looks ready, we’ll need to find a recipe. Lots of green tomatoes and the tallest corn is now hip high.

Today we went to Aloha Hive Camp with Anna and had a pizzanic, with brownies, with Lily and Lucy. We met Lily’s campers and Lucy’s cabin mates and counselor.

New blooms: hollyhock, monarda, mallow, yarrow.


Gorgeous bench, delighted with its make-over.

Another daylily hybrid, with pollinator.

Pickerelweed, a water plant with arrowhead shaped leaves and bluish flowers. The leaf shape shows better in the shadows on the water surface.
