June 1st: Clematis Vine

It's hard for me to believe that the summer has already arrived (though the constant hum of the air conditioner certainly confirms it).  I did a lot of planting over the weekend, and the clematis vine blooms helped to keep me company.

In the next few weeks, my school obligations will wind down.  I'm looking forward to leisurely days and more time in the garden.  The clematis blooms are a lovely reminder of the beauty of a good book and a lazy summer day.
