Big bunch up front
I still don’t know if this hardy stand of Black-Eyed Susans grow on our lawn or our neighbor’s.
Right on the line, they are.
No matter, really.
Beautiful they are.
And on the day the blooms emerged, when night fell, my dear wife Karen and I heard the buzz of the cicadas when we let our cherished rescue mutt out for her final backyard business. This has been a whirlwind for sure.

Cicadas already, but I guess that’s right. Did I tell you that Oliva pointed out the falling leaves on a recent walk? That’s when it hit me, July is just about over. Take good care Mark!
