The insect world is working hard, harder, hardest.
This time of year —although, the heat makes one feel like the days are dragging,—
The insects know it isn’t
That one day, very soon, the heat will no longer fill the days, and quite suddenly
(We had a freeze on Oct 6, 2013—-a photo from the archives)
A freeze will occur causing summer to vanish.
Until then— 
We will continue to prepare and watch the signs of the year’s turning.

Wasps are a pest when the nights get cooler, they are so angry during the day time!

Mama, you won’t believe this. Remember when I told you that Ken had complained about me having too many dragons? What does he do? He gets me one, too. *facepalm* Remember the blue/purple dragon on the silver ball you have me? He gave me an orange dragon on a smaller globe, resembling yours. Have mercy…SMH. LOL!
