Happy birthdays

 

A pretty smile on Nova's 16th birthday, and perfect weather yesterday for Buchart Gardens. 

And happy birthday today to our lovely Amanda. The family is in Pt. Townsend tonight before heading back to the Methow Valley. 

Sisters, sisters. Where did the time go?

Well, John is on the plane from Cincinnati and I'll pick him up in a few hours. 

The next two days are quite hot, getting up to 90, so naturally there are extreme heat warnings all over the local news. 

When I water, the thirsty birds start chattering at the first sound, especially the chickadees. A  pretty good place to be a birdie, in this hot crowded city.
