June on the Bayou and a CS Finish

I was about to let June go by without documenting the bayou. June has been such a blessing to me. I have enjoyed the days so much even if many were raining. I wondered to myself the other day why was I loving the summer days so much this year ---and then it hit me.

Last year a good portion of the summer was spent with taking care of Mama with her most awful case of shingles. I wasn't even ready for summer to end last year because I had felt it was spent dealing with that.

I thought, "No wonder I am loving the days so much. Mama is doing pretty good right now. Certainly, NOTHING like last summer.

I took pictures of the bayou at one point when I thought there would be nothing but rain to take. Even after the tropical storm in the Gulf, many days rain just spun up out there.

I don't know if you can see it, but the next two pictures of the bayou were raining. I did one out to the bigger waters and one across the way.

Last Saturday, I reminded myself that I should be sitting out and sunning like a good summer day calls for. Now, I don't care two cents about a tan anymore...but I do love to just sit and enjoy the views.

I watched boats and people enjoying the water.

I took a few shots from my lawn chair on the dock.

The first is not a shot I do very often. It is back toward my side of the bayou and down the way.
