What is so rare as a day in June?

It rained most of the afternoon, but before the drips began, I was able to fit in a set or two of tennis at Marie Courts. It was only about 57 degrees and it affected play somewhat, but it was nice to be outside playing a kid's game.

Most of the day was taken up with the World Cup "futbol." There were three games today, so we are now five games into the 64 that make up the total tournament. The USA game with England was the main attraction, but the earlier games had their moments, too. USA managed a 1-1 tie with England which was possible because of some pretty bad goalkeeping by the England keeper. He will never live it down, either. He may have to move to Canada.

I briefly went outside and took a picture of some bedraggled flowers just outside my backdoor. The day was just not very June-like.

I'll bet those are pretty when they're dry.
