Summer Is Flying By & Still Enjoying It All.

 August that it . I cant believe how fast the month has flown by why in 4 days it will be the beginning of September already WOW !

This coming weekend is Canada's  Labour day long weekend  the last week of most summer vacations as after this weekend all the school kinds go back , Miggs will be happy as she will see all the kids at the bus stop on our morning walks and be able to do what she loves to do and that is sit in the circle of kids and lots of cuddles from the kids as they wait for the bus, when the bus comes Miggs barks to say goodby to them as they wave at her to , a few times she wanted to go on the bus with them lol .
The land and natures critters are all changing  , birds are beginning to migrate to and from their summer and winter destinations and squirrels and chipmunks are gathering like mad for coming seasons . As some mid  summer flowers die off  late summer and fall flowers emerge .
 


The monarchs are slowly heading south and stopping off at the Goldenrod that has bloomed earlier than usual  and the some wildflowers in the fields still hang on whilst others are just blooming  .

This past weekend Papa and I had a bit of Archery practice in our back yard with one of our friends who has been and Archer for many years , Papa also bought a lovely bow .



                 I like the cross bow and was using that  😃 but I might try a smaller bow then what the guys use our friend said so next time I will , he has all kinds of Archery equipment .


Papa and I have also been enjoying lots of evenings on our  patio porch with the Chiminea going as the echo of crickets and grasshoppers chirp through out the yard and valley .

    
 Our wonderful neighbors gave us some lovely  yellow beans  from their veggie garden and wonderful cucumber YUMMY  nothing like fresh home grown veggies is there ?

Miggs has been enjoying the cooler dog days of summer as you see here , she is such a ham but then you all know that now don't you? lol !

Well that's it for us for now we are looking forward to this up coming long weekend as Papa gets a three day weekend WOOHOO !

                                                        Until next time .

Just about a month left of summer. We are off out with the grandkids for breakfast tomorrow morning before they head back to school next week. We have had lots of monarch and swallowtail butterflies this year, hope that is a good sign. Enjoy the upcoming long weekend.
