summer heat

oh it's just been lovely



sunshine
heat
flowers blooming




the cooing of doves
still quiet afternoons
the buzzing of a fly
panting dogs looking for shade
tomatoes forming on the vines



















air conditioned car rides through lush vineyards and
orchards, past gardens and fields of green
hay bales drying,
sheep with heads down, hidden in the long grass
haze over the mountains
the lake glistening in the distance




summer produce and the dear daughter preserving the goodness for another season
colorful jars lining the counters












long lazy summer days are here and i'm LOVING it!
