New Additions...52º

Our days have been filled with sunshine and mostly blue skies...We get thunder clouds building up West over the Wallowa Mountains and East over the Seven Devils and maybe someplaces in our vast county, they are getting showers, but not here in Joseph...Our garden flourishes as everything loves the warm sun and our drip lines keep things well watered...The asparagus is now growing tall, turning into ferny stalks for the summer...Green onions and radishes appear on our plates at dinner time...Grapes and raspberries are blooming and the garlic is shooting up scapes.

Our flower gardens are bursting forth with columbine, peonies, and poppies...Lilacs are fading, yellow roses are in full bloom and the apples, plums and apricots are setting fruit...Now starts the struggle to keep the weeds at bay, while keeping everything else watered and flourishing.

We joined Becky and Pam on Saturday to attend the wedding of our acupuncturist...We have all gotten to know Jamie over the past year and along with their many friends and relatives we wished them a long and happy life...It was a full day of celebrating, but Herb and I returned home after the ceremony and left the young people to party.

While FTing with Bobi last week, she said, "Mom if you see kittens looking for a new home, "snag" us a couple, preferably a boy and a girl."...Yesterday found us driving 20 miles, choosing two kittens, stopping for food and litter, and got back home without incident...They had managed to get out of the box in the back of the subaru and roam around, meowing all the way, finally one sitting on the back headrest, surveying the passing scenery and the other snuggled down in a blanket, sleeping...We now have them secured in the back room with a big box bed, food, water and litter box (all the comforts of home) where they seem very content, eating, sleeping, pooping and playing...No problems overnight and we will continue to expand their territory as well as cuddle and play with them until our "girls" arrive to take them home...Hugs To All...OWAV:)
