It felt good to be outside at Mom and Dad’s home, for a short time. The mosquitoes are really viscious right now given all of the rain. I got bit four times in a matter of a couple of minutes, and that was with staying off the lawn and out of the gardens. So I took faraway photos, except for this coleus, which is thriving with all of the rain, too:

I love those! They make me happy just looking at them!
BTW: How’s the poison ivy rash?

I’m glad you love the Coleus! They are tucked into a nice shady corner next to the barn, a picket fence and a little deck with a lunch table.
The poison ivy rash is slowly healing on my legs, and still itchy on my arms and upper torso. Thanks for asking!
