April

Although April may come in like a lion (as seen in this two photographs of warm light on a frosty morning and a snowy sunset), it also brings the promise of more warmer weather and spring flowers.

May

April showers = May flowers and the birth of new life in many forms. Even the cats (siblings) seem to get along better as the weather warms. This was also the month of the Blood Moon.
Grandma Potter's Irises welcome the sun's rays, The Bleeding Hearts show off their silkiness against the dark texture of the tree, and the Jack-in-the -Pulpet reaches toward the sky.

June

June saw a few changes in the lockdown that had help "bend the curve" of the coronavirus that changed our way of life so dramatically. Restaurants had closed, some permanently; schools forced to go from classroom to on-line learning, businesses that used to see employers and employees on-site go to working from home, shortages in grocery stores, air and ground travel deeply restricted -- and no re-cycling in our local township (among many other things).

So by the time recycling began again, we had accumulated 4 large barrels of goods to be recycled. The barrels were too tall to fit into our cars, so Lee loaded them into our "Gator", and off we went to the Recycle center, about 1.5 miles away. Whoever invented bungie cords was a genius!
