Summer afternoon, summer afternoon;
to me those have always been the two
most beautiful words in the English language.

Henry James

Midwesterners are blessed with four distinct and beautiful seasons. Do you have a favorite? For many the answer is summer. Long days, warm nights, friends, family, gardens, picnics, concerts, beaches, trips and more…we happily make the most of it!

Normally our Garden Club meeting year ends on a high note with our June Tea. We celebrate our successes, then pause to savor the summer in all its glory. While there are no meetings to pause, there have been 10 newsletter issues. We’ve done our best to inform, entertain and hold our club together through the pandemic…cause for celebration if we do say so ourselves!

Now we take a break, but plan to stay in touch. Garden photo sharing (See the Presidents’ Points) and updates will continue. We hold out hope for a return to normalcy in the fall. Until then, carpe diem. 
Enjoy your summer!
