The wonderful rain this week has improved the mood of most people. We waited so long for it. The crops are coming up, lawns are greening and the world looks more normal than before. The fields and gardens are showing their rows and the flowers from the greenhouses are looking bright. Now itlooks like this will be another hot, dry week so let’s hope it’s not quite as windy as last. Everything dries up so quickly when it’s so windy.

The scam phone calls this last week make a person disgusted with humankind. The crap they try to pull off is unreal.

Visiting from Wetaskiwin and Leduc, Alta. for a few days were Joyce Rowland and her sister Donna Lambert. They got their haircuts at the salon here and helped plant flowers at Aunt Linda’s and at their mom’s.
The Baltimore orioles showed up on the weekend. They are so bright they don’t even look real.
The hummingbirds are here too, but I don’t know just where they are eating this year. The pine siskins keep the area around the feeder so busy the hummers have been discouraged from hanging around their feeder nearby.
Cemetery cleanup was on Thursday last, and now the area looks tidy and the grass will get on with growing since the rain.
The concession is open and, with the summer weather we are having, they are busy. We enjoyed supper from there on Sunday and can vouch that their food is good.
