Fourth, Flowers, Friends

July has been quite cool...as the whole summer has been. Things have been at least sunny now!
-Coreopsis along the lakeshore.
-Irises at my house.


-And the purple ones.
-The 4th of July landed on a perfect day on the island.




-Bill helped greet people coming into the fort.
-And Mary at the American Fur Company Store.






-The gals during the evening festivities.


-The boys in blue.

-And the guys in green taking care of it all.

-The small charge of 10 oz.
-The whole crew of '09.

- Now that's more like it.
-We got an Indigo Bunting by the gun platform I've been seeing for years, but finally got a picture!

-The cannon by moonlight.
-Haldimand Bay and down by moonlight.
