Dooryard Details

When I first moved to Maine in 1995 I learned a new word, dooryard.  It is the space directly in front of the front door, often defined by a fence.  Of course, no one ever uses the front door,  they come in the door on the farmer's porch (another Maine word) by the barn.  This is a clear wing Hummingbird Moth, a frequent visitor to the dooryard.  They love the phlox which is putting on a good show right now. My packing continues and so does our beautiful weather.  Gift#213: continued lovely temperatures.
