Pretty low key. Caught up on some weeding and reading. Mowing and putting a new weed-whacker to work. Biggest news was Rosie (Elly’s Airstream) returning from Franks Trailer Works in Baltimore with a new floor and other structural improvements.
Elly got right to work sealing up leaks so she can dive into the wiring and interior rebuild.
Fred helped …
… when he wasn’t too busy looking cute.
(The poochers got way too much attention.)
With Rosie sitting at least 6 inches higher, Jade found a new shady spot to hang out on hot days.
And I took far fewer pix than I thought I would, given all the free time.

Verbascums really carry the weight this time of year. Sorry I’ve lost track of the species/cultivars. (Yellow ones might by V. olympicum?) They just reseed nicely (well, you’ve got to be a little brutal on the seedlings) every year.
Verbascum chaixii ‘Album’?

My neighbor Lynn finds bee pix boring. But I can’t get enough of them. I love the little orange bundles of pollen they pick up from the verbascum.
