The large, craggy, old catalpa tree next door recently leafed out. The leaves were followed by white blossoms. The blossoms don't last long and now they're falling like snow. Over the summer the blossoms will be followed by long pods which create a bit of a mess. A bit of chain link fence separates the tree from The Little House which keeps the leaves and pods at bay. The neighbor's yard was once fenced but some was removed and Jose never replaced it.
Green is the color of the day. Trees, grass, cornfields, soybeans, alfalfa provide a palette of greens. I've often written that there is nothing more green than a field of rice but the local greens are good competition. Last night's lightening produced no rain and some would be welcome now. A bit of a breeze by a high of 73 degrees means "what is so rare as a day in June?"
Takk for alt,

One of the losses caused by COVID was my volunteering at Noble Academy. This picture is from a field trip to Valley Fair.
