It's still summer
I finally have to come back. Summer is still here. We've had a lot of cool and rainy days this summer, and only a short period of these beautiful, mild summer evenings. You know those beautiful evenings when you sit in the garden with a glass of wine in your hand, listening to the crickets and if you're lucky there's a shooting star.
On these warm days we often went swimming in the nearby forest lake.
Well, this is the birdbath, and the garden birds use it very regularly for bathing.
It's a joy for everyone involved.
In June we were in England—yes, we were in England again—and spent most of our vacation in Scotland. It was fantastic.
However, I was only able to wear the summer clothes I had brought with me in Bavaria/Germany – in the Rhön region.
The vacation was still fantastic.
Back home, there were wonderful gatherings with family and friends, wonderful fruits in the garden... and yes, baking the delicious cakes - I love it.

There were also a few hikes and a bit of city life... strolling through the city... and above all, there was sewing on the sewing machine – again now. And more about that, my dears, in the next post.
