ONE OF MY MOST FAVORITE DAYS OF SUMMER, IS WHEN OUR NEIGHBOR.. DIRECTLY BEHIND US, BRUSH HOGS HIS FIELD.  I JUST LOVE HIS TRACTOR.  YOU SEE, I HAVE FOND MEMORIES OF SPENDING LONG, HOT SUMMER DAYS WITH MY GRANDPARENTS, AUNTS, UNCLES AND COUSINS... ON MY GRANPARENTS FARM...MY GRANDPA HAD AN UMBRELLA JUST LIKE THIS ONE IN THE PICTURE.  FUNNY THING THOUGH...THIS MAN NEVER WAVES BACK.  NEVER.  OH WE'VE LIVED HERE ABOUT 15 YEARS...AND HE JUST NEVER WANTS TO WAVE. 

THIS IS MY FAVORITE GIRL COUSIN...  WE SPENT A LOT OF TIME ON THAT FARM!  SHE WENT ON TO BECOME WHAT I CALL A FAMOUS DOCTOR...(SHE IS RATED IN THE TOP 10 BEST OB/GYNS IN DETROIT)....  THIS IS A SNAP I TOOK OF US BLUEBERRY PICKING LAST WEEK...IT'S TRADITION.  AND, NO WE DIDN'T PLAN ON MATCHING STRAW HATS AND BLACK SUNGLASSES...  WE JUST THINK ALIKE.

QUEEN ANNE'S LACE OR WILD CARROT IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE WEED-FLOWERS.  I LIKE TO THINK THE ONLY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A WEED AND A FLOWER IS AN OPINION.

HAPPY WEDNESDAY!
