It’s the last day of the month, so I made sure to get a sewing project in.

Oh how you shine with your heart full of moon light and your soul full of stars.

Getting ready for summertime observing.

More onesies. They are cute, fun and quick. I’m proud that I haven’t burnt myself making them yet. Speaking of heat, we installed a shade cloth on the greenhouse yesterday. Check out the difference it made… Yesterday’s outside high was 88 and greenhouse high was a whopping 130! Today’s outside high was 86 and the greenhouse high was 104! (Note: it’s empty in there now & this is just one step towards being able to use it in the summer.)

It was perfect kayak weather today! In other news, I’ve basically taken a month off from the farmers market and am looking at returning in the next week or two. So I made a onesie as a test item. We’ll see how it goes over.

Another travel day. I have lots of traveling rocks this month. I leave them in almost the same locations every few days across the state. I love that by the time I place another rock, the previous one has disappeared. Hopefully they all find good homes.

Traveling again. This month is for the birds as far as accomplishing my goals. Still a few days left to go. We’ll see what happens.

Mowing day! I got to upper and lower fields mowed today, as well as the skid road, the hiking trail and some of the lower areas we thinned over the winter.  More beans and peas were planted and the netting on the cucumbers trellis was installed. In honor of pride month, I made a rainbow love rock to send out into the world.

With all the recent weddings, I was inspired to make some jewelry today.

I’ve only been home a handful of days in the past month. My garden, my art and my business definitely feel the impact. I weeded FIVE full bags today. Even with all the weeds, recent rain and cool temps, I was super excited to see happy plants! Here is hoping for sunny days and warm weather! I took LOTS of pictures of the garden today too, It’s not everything but you get the idea. Also, it may be June but I started a Christmas project today. After the ink sets, color will come. Stay tuned for the final results.
