i won't be sorry to see the back of july. july is usually the harshest month of the year in this part of the world; but this particular july has been brutal - wind, rain, cold, frost, floods, thunderstorms, tornadoes and even snow.
i feel like i've spent most of the month struggling to keep warm, both physically and emotionally.
but soon we're heading into august, and that thought makes me happy. august is usually still very cold but occasionally you can catch a sniff of spring in the air. the first daffodils come out. the farmers start lambing. fat buds appear on trees every where. slowly the days begin to inch out. summer may be a loooong way off yet - but at least it feels like a possibility.
here are some images of my july. as you can see, the middle of winter isn't all doom and gloom!
