Not much going on in the courtyard on a hot Summer day....

The usual annuals are there, but did make a mistake this year.  For years have planted wax begonias in the wall planters as they  seem to tolerate the heat best.  This year planted impatiens and they are struggling.

These two characters have continued to do their damage.  I think that "tree rat" (squirrel) would look healthier if it would stick to a diet of nuts, acorns and other normal squirrel food, and stop munching on my petunias, and wax begonias.  "Chubs"  the chipmunk has fattened up on something. It digs in the pots uprooting plants, but does not appear to be eating any - so far.

Recent visitors to daughter's flower bed: The frog hangs around if not in the flower bed, then in a potted plant.

One ugly frog!

 One very large moth. Think the wing span gets 5 to 6 ins. or larger.

Not something I would pick to do on a hot Summer day, but she baked 12 loaves (different flavors) of friendship bread to stock the freezer.  To me it is more of a cake instead of a bread.

Chocolate Chip

 None of it will be stored in her vintage bread box, as it is being used for magazines...

  So, what is going on around your abode on a hot Summer day ?

Just another Dab of This and That ramble...
