GLORIOUS DAYS

Welcome to July. The past few days have indeed been glorious. It's hot and humid, but brilliantly sunny and stunningly green. I've lived here in the Tennessee wilderness for nearly ten years, and seldom remember a summer that is this intensely green.

I sat out on the  porch  yesterday to savor my  surroundings. I usually refer to it as my property rather than yard. It's much more appropriate. The feeble photos I take don't do it justice.

Due to my (cursed) physical limitations, I usually take pictures only from the front porch. I wish that I could walk in the forest like I used to. My frustrations are multitudinous, but I try (try....) to ignore them.

Everything looks wonderful now that I have a driveway, walkway, and mowed "lawn". The place almost looks tame.

I don't have anything of interest to tell (which is why I often post reruns....to some ununified disdain).

I (think) I've finally chosen a suitable air fryer oven. It will be delivered next week. I desperately need a new refrigerator (let's not go into that).

The days are lovely and the nights peaceful. My bedroom window is open permanently now. At night I see magical lightning bugs flitting around. The owls keep a constant watch with their hoo-hoots.

Last night there was gunfire around 3:00 a.m. Coyotes? Wild dogs? Wild hogs? They're rampant around here.

But it was still a peaceful night.

I took some pics yesterday, but there's nothing more than what you've already seen.

A glimpse of my car...many of these large trees were damaged by storms.

The porch needs to be repainted but still looks fairly good.

This sunset photo turned out rotten

I was horrified when I accidentally deleted some comments on my previous post.

"Reply" and "delete" are too close together and my fingers slipped.
