Feltmaking, birthday and the likes

I love June. However the last few years it seems to be a bit of an emotionally manic month - maybe subconsciously I'm shocked by the fast passing of years marked by my birthday in June every year ;-)
Anyhow, I still love it. Longest days, exploding growth in the garden, beautiful scents in nature, restless energy whoch can be as good as I make it (or as destructive ;-)
Here's a few photos, including a drenched dog, a bunch of little and big people stuffed with cakes at a small birthday gathering, and one group photo of the happy felters who started their wooly adventure here at my cave the other day.



Oh them rainy days will never stop Uisce from a good ol' runaround in the garden

Early June Gardens

June has arrived swiftly out of the blue, and has brought a bit of warmth, hope it will be a regular visitor for the next while. Nice to get a bit sunburnt again:)
There's lots to do in the garden, but the reward started coming too, great to taste fresh veg from the grounds again. Here's a few pictures of the garden and the animals.
