Usually by this time of summer the lawns have started turning brown and the streams and brooks have slowed way down or stopped flowing altogether.
These last two weeks of summer have produced some spectacular thunderstorms with heavy rain. Stamford has not had floods, but other parts of the state have been flooded.
The grass is green, the foliage is lush, and the streams and brooks are flowing.
The best part of my walk these days is Interlaken Road. Design by Lee a nursery is there, and I am always tempted to purchase another plant for the deer and rabbits to eat.
The spillway for the North Stamford Reservoir is there and the water is flowing over it. The nice part is you can hear the water roaring through cascades about 500 feet before you get to the spillway.
Mianus River also has some nice cascades, but they are not that easy to reach by foot.
Continue to enjoy the summer of Stamford.
