My favorite flower is in full bloom.
.

.
It’s peony time!
.

.
For a bright burst of color you really can’t beat them.
.

.
And the fragrance? Heavenly….
.

.
They also make a nice backdrop for pictures of his lordship.

You never know what serious news stories will be discussed on my town’s Facebook page. The economy? Yes. Climate change? Sure. But I live in Maine…. so likely as not? It will be this:
.

.
Bear poop beats the G-7 Summit any day.
.

.
The conversation got heated and had to be removed by admin. We take our poo identification seriously up here.
.

.
Now that’s my kind of neighbors.
.

.
Someone is selling peony blossoms for $3 a pop?
.

.
Woot!
I’m going to be rich.
.

.
I’ve read that the cost of rental cars had gone up, but $3,000 for a week?
That’s beyond insane.

Flowers –
For a pure burst of summer color?

You can’t beat peonies.

They’re bright, lush and smell heavenly.

Flags –
Or as my husband calls them…

Guest towels from the spare bathroom you nail into a long piece of wood when your wife isn’t looking.
Foolishness –

The gift a friend gives you because she knows you’re allergic to horsefly bites.

With a name like the Bug Bite Thing, you don’t expect it to work.

And no surprise, it didn’t. A horsefly bit me, I suctioned my arm as directed and still swelled up like a politician at a pay by the plate fundraising dinner.
More foolishness –

Contains 40% urea.
WTF!
Don’t know what urea is?
Google it, I’ll wait.
**********************
Right?
Who in the world wants to rub urine on their feet.
And on the off chance I ever do? I’ll save myself some money and ask the neighbor’s dog to pee on me. Lord knows he’s been trying to for years.
