Fingers crossed graduations will be sunny and not too hot since many are held outdoors. Graduation parties, cookouts, Father’s Day, Flag Day, Juneteenth, vacations, and weddings are on tap this month.

Spring is here and spring green abounds, but summer is on its way.

Have you signed the kids up for summer programs? It’s going to be harder this summer with rising costs, especially at the gas pump and the grocery store. Many of us will be taking staycations instead of vacations.

Get outside and enjoy nature. Listen to the birds chirping and the squirrels chittering. Breathe in the fresh air and relax. Play with your little ones; they grow up too fast. Eat good food and dance. Sing off key and pretend nobody’s listening. Cherish the time we are granted on this Earth!

It’s been a challenging year so far. Enjoy your family! Be thankful; hug your loved ones and spread a little love for humanity this month. It’s desperately needed. Please enjoy June 2026 in Pictures!
