It's been a hot, steamy summer, perfect for relaxing in the shade of the locust tree or on the porch with a gentle breeze cooling the air. The rose of sharon and butterfly bushes are coming into full bloom. I watched a female monarch butterfly fluttering through the milkweed, so I'll have to check for eggs when she's not looking.* A hummingbird was nectaring at a pot of colorful zinnias and the Early Girl tomatoes are just starting to ripen.

*Update: Found 5 Monarch Butterfly eggs! Here's one on the tropical milkweed.
