Scenes of Early Summer

From Christian County, KY


Wheat harvest is beginning.
A day off for the workhorses.

Daylilies are blooming along the roadsides.

And a bit of news for the Croftonians-in-exile who read this blog --  Crofton (a small town in northern Christian County) had a flash flood yesterday about 2:00 AM. According to the National Weather Service, a law enforcement officer reported water as deep as car headlights at the junction of Highways 800 and 41 in Crofton. I heard thunder for several hours, but it never did rain at our house. All the rain must have fallen at Crofton!

  1. Your pictures are always so nice. I love the daylilies. Every time I see them I always think of summer. I grew up in Florida, so summer was almost every day of the year, but the daylilies only grew in the summer months and they were always so pretty. I can't see them without thinking of the Bible passage about "the lilies of the field" Matthew 6:28.

  2. Thank you, Stitchy. I always enjoy the wild daylily season too. It's amazing that one day a flower is so crisp and vibrant, and the next day, wilted.
