Things To Do... Later

Historically - all 2 years of it - June has been a pretty light posting month for me and this year seems to be no different.  In this case, no news is good news.  The week started with temps in the upper 90F's and ended with temps in the 50's and 60's, supposedly good, cool weather this weekend to help get some outside projects done.  We need to wash and water seal the new back steps soon.  I need to take a wire brush to the front railings and paint.  And lastly, we need to dig out some sod and put in mulch in the corner of the back yard by the lilac.

Today, the overcast skies seems to be affecting our energy and none of those are getting done.  After I slept in late, we have shopped, cleaned the house and mowed instead.  Kate also did some weeding in the garden.  There has been progress in that area so I will be posting over at our Garden Blog later (check out the strawberries!).  In this picture, note the light pink peonies are in bloom and also take another peek at our neighbor Jane's sun and moon collection on her garage.  I think they look pretty dang neat!
