The promise of June. The docks get setup, the boats get put into the water. The wildlife reclaim their spaces.
The sunsets and sunrises remind us how spectacular they can be. And the long days are just the best reward after months of winter and snow.
I hope you had a wonderful June and enjoy our top photos from Instagram.
