Long Weekend!

This weekend starts off the summer around here (although not officially); it is the first long weekend of the season. 




The weather was exceptional beautiful; if anything a little too hot for the hounds, but thinking back to some of those winter days, I'm not going to complain about the temperature. It also seems to have been the kick-off of the bug season; junebugs, blackflies and mosquitoes are out in full force.  Oh and Miss Veil's nemesis - the dreaded bees.  While we were out for our walk this morning, she heard that familiar buzzing and immediately turned and pulled hard for home and the safety of the house. 




So, welcome back Summer!  We hope you stick around longer than a few weeks this year!!
