 Finally Some June Weather!


Usually it's fairly cool - for Florida - and rainy during June, but this year has been so strange! Temperatures way up in the 90s, hot and dry, dry, dry!  Then for quite a few days we had smoke from the fires up in the Okefenokee Swamp north of us, and from fires in Volusia County, south of us.  Some days we could hardly see for the thick smoke, and other days even if it wasn't so thick it still made everyone cough when they went outside.  We could even smell it inside the house! We worried about fires here since it was so hot and dry.

Well, finally just a few days ago we got our "June weather" - cooler temps (80s, not 90s) and some rain.  Mostly it rains in the late afternoon, which is nice for all the day camps going on! 


The bird, probably a female cardinal, is the same color as the birdbath.

It's so nice to have everything green again after a few rains!
