Starting the 2nd half of the year.

July 1st. Canada Day and the birthday of a long time friend who lives in the UK. 

Birthstone:   Ruby

The glowing ruby should adorn

Those who in warm July are born

Then will they be exempt and free

From love's doubt and anxiety.

Princess Diana of Wales was born on this day in 1961, and her sons are unveiling a memorial for her today.

We had another half and inch of rain overnight and it is cloudy and cooler today.  A nice change from the heat.

Not much going on here today, usually on Canada Day, families get together,  but due to the pandemic we are staying put until we have our second vaccination on Sunday and then two weeks after that.   By the middle of July we should be fully protected, but we also intend on wearing our masks.  

We are still catching several caterpillars each day the burlap is doing a good job.  The tree does not look as if is losing its leaves to the appetite  of these pests, so that is a good thing.  I am going to look on Google to read more about these caterpillars.

As I said not much going on today.

Not even sure what we will have for dinner tonight either, so I am going to see what looks appetizing.

Have a great day.
