Summer sights in country life

This kind of a summer day reminds me of when I was a kid and spent every spare minute I could with my Poppa, who lived right next door to me. We would be in the garden digging, planting, picking, getting hot & covered with dirt endlessly.

Jogging on this beautiful day was perfect in itself and for giving me time to appreciate what I saw in front of me now, and for giving me time to remember the "good old days" with Poppa.

Today and then:
The corn and sunflowers were as high as an elephant's eye.
Day lilies, butterfly bushes, Rose of Sharons, coneflowers, phlox and more are in full bloom, surrounded by the buzzing of industrious bees, butterflies, hummingbirds.
Deer are tiptoeing through the woods and along streams.
Cows are mooing and swishing their tails at those pesky flies.
Veggie stands and Farmers Markets are set up everywhere.
Clouds drift into shapes that you can see so clearly, then quickly morph into a brand new shape.

How did you spend your summer day today, and was it similar to your many summers past??
I hope you got the enjoyment out of your summer day and your community as much as I did mine!

I am a Putnamaniac because I love the country summer sights!
