June - the lull before the storm

I think June may be my favourite gardening month.
We still have some of the spring freshness, most of the sowing and transplanting has been done with just the week in week out successional sowing to be done, plus the Big Job of leek planting! 
In July the produce starts to come thick and fast and there's much less time to simply sit or wander and enjoy the garden. By August it's a battle to keep on top of the harvesting and the watering and much of the garden has become a brown and largely flowerless wasteland, dahlias and zinnias aside! But there is the promise of aubergines and chillies as the month progresses. 
September and October are good again, lots and lots of produce, hopefully some rain and no early frosts.
I have no idea the point of this post, it just crossed my mind, watching the first flowers appear on the tomatoes, how much promise June brings.
Has Anyone Seen the Plot?
