Flowering Trees. #6

Hello everyone! How are you on this fine day? It was mainly cloudy here again today although there were a few sort of sunny breaks as well. Plus there were a couple of showers too. Seems we can’t make it through a day without some rain. Yesterday it rained rather heavily for a while and we even had some hail. I missed seeing the hail since I was lying down at the time, but a friend of mine mentioned it to me today.

We did have a nice thunderstorm though, lots of lightning and some good rumbles of thunder. Muffin was always so afraid of thunder and would go and hide at the first distant rumble. Until the last year of her life, then she always wanted to be near me when I thunderstorm showed up. That was such an interesting change in her.

It was a rather cool day again too, with a high of only 59F (15C) today. Our night time low temperature should be warmer than that this time of year. Oh well, I still think we had our summer already and from now on it will be cool, cool, cool.

Have I ever mentioned that I like warm places? I do. Even though that early heat bothered me a lot this year, it was the heat inside that was the problem.

Not the heat outside, that was fine. Oh well. The robins are singing happily right now and they will continue singing until after dark, then start up again at 3am. I love listening to the birds singing. Well, I hope you enjoy the flowering trees today, have a great day and God bless!
