June is named for Juno, the Roman queen of the gods, protector of love, marriage, and motherhood. One of the birth flowers associated with this month is the rose, which is often called the “queen of flowers” and is a timeless symbol of love. Wishing you a joyful new month!

@RobWrightImages Rob, I love seeing your photos of the state where I was born and raised. Spent time in the Whites when I was a kid (and still visit!). My uncle had a rustic cabin in the woods off Bear Notch Road. Long time ago. Beautiful photos.

Do any of you remember this whimsical book from the 90s? The aesthetic of them is so enchanting, short letters between Griffin & Sabine in actual envelopes! What a wonderful gift celebrating snail mail from @belaski_meghan!

@snufflewort @belaski_meghan Griffin & Sabine! I haven't thought of that book in years. What a nice memory.

@SueOC_NBCBoston Love this story, Sue. I had a similar experience. My 4th grade teacher (Mrs. Edny) told my mother, "Karen is the class poet. She's going to be a writer." I've been writing ever since, but have struggled with sharing my work. Now, at nearly 63, I'm finally ready. ✍️

So many dogs to save on a daily basis but one thing always guides me… Tina.

I only had her for 6 months but she was glorious.

Today the team are building her hospital. It’s just some huge holes in the ground and some foundations going in but I have to pinch myself every single second.

It won’t be easy to get this done, fund it and kit it out but Tina is buried just to the side of it watching on. We treat lots of dogs already but this will be one of the best hospitals for street dogs on the planet!

All in Tina’s name ❤️

An early morning shot of the Iceberg that was at Pouch Cove Newfoundland. It was just a waiting game to get some patches of light and interesting clouds to go with this big and beautiful iceberg. Unfortunately I don't think this Iceberg is no longer there.
