The heat is intense—100* plus sometimes
The slash of sunlight filling the evening sky is —well, MARVELOUS!
Oh! Mr. Sun, what a gift you are!
From my world to each of your hearts,

I saw this fox at the Upper End the other day. It looks rather ill, I think. See that knot by its eye? Who knows what it is—tick, cheatgrass seed, tumor?
There looks like something wrong by the shoulder too. Maybe how it’s standing, but something just isn’t right with this poor creature.
I’ll never know.
It quickly turned and ran the moment it saw me.

Summertime and the liv’n is easy (Terry would disagree)
The birds are singing and the corn is past the knee
The farm is thriv’n, and blue is the sky
Hush, little baby, please don’t cry
Each morning you rise up singing
You spread your wings and you fly
The earth is calm, nothing can hurt you
Hush little baby, time is flying by
Summertime and the liv’n is easy
Summertime and the crops are looking fine
Oh! Yes! It’s summertime —sweet baby–my doll
Hush little baby—for time is flying by!
From my world to your heart,
Linda
Corn! I love the sunlight on the corn!
I even love the sunlight Under the corn. The Corn is covered in shade from the trees, but still
Yep, we are hot! We do as much as we can in the morning…stop at noon, and begin again later on.
Hot! But—no matter what! IT IS SUMMER AND I LOVE IT!!!

HOT!!! Is the Word!
Mom says it’s hot enough she is concerned Dad, I, and TLC might melt
Although, she also says we are lucky-
We have lots of shade and it DOES cool down in the night!
Mom also says she will take Summer anytime of the year!
Dad and I
And Boo Berry—Think there are other nicer times like Spring and Fall.
Just say’n.
TLC (and ME—-Boo Berry)
Sometimes I am overwhelmed with the joy
The amazing beauty
Which fills my life!
Humbly I rejoice!
From my world to your heart,
Linda
Ya just have to go have fun!
Off we went to a local tractor pull, BBQ, and a all-around nice day!

Morning Coming on
Then the sky lightens with rippling glorious light
By the time the sun is full-up the irrigation water is set, the marking is done, and a countless slew of other things.
Farming. From before sunup to
After sundown.
