Don't forget! Full Strawberry Moon! :-)


First Moss Rose, planted by the back patio door...

Reflection...

First "Old Rose," in little rose garden, by pool fence, in back yard.
 
Just over the back fence, which looked pretty, when I was sitting out there.

Pink Forsithia
 
"Old Roses" by next door fence
"BK" again.  And yes, I call her "BK" for "Bad Kitty"...  Because when she first came, she used to "steal" the older cat's seat, at the corner of the porch windows.  ,-)

Don't forget the June Strawberry Full Moon!!!

According to Native American folklore, this full Moon is called a Strawberry Moon, because the short season for harvesting strawberries, comes during the month of June.

Other names for the first full Moon in June, are Rose Moon, and Flower Moon.
