We went to the Mayhaw Pond, Miz Willene and Buffy and I. The young mule across the fence in Mr. James' pasture came to see what we were doing. Buffy commenced to bark, running along the fence.
When she got to a hole in the fence big enough that she could slip through, she gave chase. Sudden Buffy was being chased herself by something bigger and faster, with thundering hooves! She circled quickly back to the hole she'd gone through. She spent the rest of the time we were there barking, but carefully on her side of the fence.

We have 'skeeters here too, now. Bobby is making noises about turning on the AC. I am not ready yet.
Her adventure reminds me of the children's books, Angus and the Ducks I read to the kids when they were little. Good writing. Our humidity isn't too bad, yet, but soon, oh soon.
Also, no daylilies, but not long for those either. I see scapes.~~Dee
