Green, green, green - everywhere, punctuated with yellow dots of buttercups, outrageous wild glory of rhododendrons, red vines covered with berry blossoms, soft newness of spring growth on evergreens, giant ferns, skunk cabbage morphing into knee high bushes. Weeds in the gardens are having a hey day, putting down resistant roots that will make us sweat with the effort of their removal whenever - if ever - those imagined days of sunshine arrive to deliver JUNE! I'm tempted to drive across the mountains to see if folks to the east have captured the sun but snow has fallen in the passes and on the roads above 4,000 feet. We will wait till June-uary evolves into June and then the luscious fruits on the vines and in the trees, the fresh enormous veggies and flowers more glorious in their sun-kissed colors will reward us for our waiting.
Happy June-uary!
