Summer Is Flying By So Fast & A Wedding Coming Up

 Hello , I hope all are well and enjoying this summer , All good here at Woods Country Cove , Papa and I are well as is our family and we are just enjoying this summer all though it is flying by so fast  , and following the rules of this still pandemic  . Boy oh Boy life is so different now isn't it ?!

I have been enjoying our yard and gardens taking photos and staying cool under our patio porch , which soon we will be building into a screened porch , right now we have a camping screen house that just fits under perfectly as this humid summer has brought out all kinds of bothersome bugs when one want to sit out on the patio .

It may look weird but for now it works till we get this odd shaped patio porch screed , Papa will be doing it soon when he takes some more of his vacation off next month .

A few photos of my favorite butterfly , Spice bush Swallowtail .

I have been literately standing in the center of my gardens studying my subjects and taking their photos , I can do this all day😀 

Some are taken with my big camera  but most are taken with my smart phone ,

 We have an exiting weekend coming up for us and our eldest son  and his fiancée , they are getting married this Saturday in their back yard , it will be a small wedding with just family and a few close family friends , one of their friends is ordained so she will be marrying them and another friend is a florist so she will be doing all the flowers and Papa and I as we are photographers will be taking their photos  , so we are looking forward to that  and yes masks will be worn and all precautions have been set in place , our province is in stage 3 now and small private outdoor events with 25 people  are allowed . Will have photos to share here  of this after .

Our trees  in the yard and in the valley at the very tops of them are slowly showing signs of change  already  , the temps at night have been a bit cooler on and off but the days have been very muggy and humid not surprising as August is our hottest month lol . 

Papa and I have been quietly just taking this summer and strange times  all in stride and day by day and hope you all are to and stay safe and make the best of these strange times we are all going through . 

 

                                                     Until next time

It's Been Awhile

Hi . Hope all are staying cool in this heatwave and well .

Yes it has been a while since I last posted . I decided to take some time away from blogging , a bit of a break if you will and as the covid here in Ontario has improved tremendously and things are slowly getting back to normal per-say we have been  able to visit and spend more time with family as well  and our internet has been acting up some to so working on getting that fixed .
 I have been busy in the gardens trying to keep them alive with this drought we are having and praying for rain , hoping the forecast is correct and getting rain this coming weekend .

Our kids had this lovely painting done from a photo for us from a friend of theirs who is an artist, they had this done  in memory of our Misty  aka Miggs, she captured Miggs soulful loving eyes and character perfectly . We miss her so very much ❤️

As the summer moves on so are we with doing fix ups around the house that we have been meaning to get to for a long time now you know the little things that get put off lol . So things have been slowly moving along here , getting done bit by bit 😀

The yard has been busy with birds and critters and one skunk that seems to like staying here and bunking  out from behind our sheds and woodlot lol  we are trying to move him/her out without causing to much stress for it and most of all trying not to get sprayed lol .

Well that's about it for me for now  , Hope all have a good weekend .

                                                         Until next time .
