Information on the internet claims birthing begins in late April to early May with peaks during the summer months.<br \/>\nThus, seeing a new fawn in late June should be expected. So much for my thoughts! This is an iPhone 12 photo and not of great quality, but the attentiveness of the mother impresses me. <\/p>\n<p>Golden currants are ripe and showy among all the green (when the Autumn Clematis isn&#8217;t smothering them.<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/www.pnwflowers.com\/flower\/ribes-aureum<br \/>\nOn this site, if you click on &#8220;more photos&#8221; and then click on a photo it will expand with information, including the location.

I loaned it to the man that was taking Brittanys for Nancy when she couldn&#8217;t go to a show. I no longer remember why he needed a saw, but it was in a shed that burned. I also do not remember if he offered to replace it. If he talked to me, I don&#8217;t remember. It was an inexpensive model and I guess that might have been when I bought the now deceased Craftsman radial arm saw. Anyway, it will be new here next week. <\/p>\n<p>My weather has been benign (except for the wind) this week while the north central and eastern part of the Nation have been hot and stormy. Things change. For me, the NWS thinks Monday and Tuesday will go above 90\u00b0F. The south-center part of WA will likely go over 100 for those two days. Ouch! Summer is like this in WA.<br \/>\nI paid $4.46 for gasoline today. But Powerade was reduced from its regular $1.39 to 89\u00a2. My favorite ice cream was $3.50, normally $6.95. I should mention WA&#8217;s gas tax goes up 6\u00a2 per gallon on July 1. The fee on large Carbon Dioxide producers helps push WA&#8217;s average cost per gallon [$4.42] into the top five of the states. The lowest are Mississippi at $2.69 per gallon, followed by Louisiana at $2.79 and Texas at $2.80. <\/p>\n<p>Keeping Track<br \/>\non the Naneum Fan<br \/>\nJohn H.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The year \u2013 1990 &#8211; after moving to here the wind seemed to blow relentlessly.
