Good morning!!!!

There are some serious fires in Hawaii on Maui and big island. As far I can tell it is isolated to the north side of the big island but on Maui it is very bad with people jumping in the ocean. Hope that David is safe

Good Afternoon m7040,
Yes I also saw this on the news, the news media is making it sound really very bad ! Hopefully they are over hyping it as they sometimes do !

Im sure Sodamo will update us at some point !

Anyone heard from Sodamo ?

He went through fire issues around this time two years ago. Hope all is well.

I think he is on the wetter side of the island. I read the fires on big island were north. The west side of the islands are the dry side.

84F and sunny @ 14:15, calling for a high of 82F today so we've easily beaten that. HI 85F, DP 59F, HU 48%, AQI 61.

More rain due in tonight into tomorrow ... just as the standing water/puddles out back have disappeared ...

Was a very good day here yesterday.

Ran down to the hardware store yesterday before The Woman left for Cleveland Hopkins yesterday and picked up a new tail piece of the sink. PVC this time, hopefully won't rot out. Got it trimmed to length and assembled but still need to tighten it up and eliminate any leaks.

Got the 4 Kentucky Field Pumpkins stuck in the ground.

Got another half dozen runners pinned down in pots.

Fired up the weed burner torch and made more holes for additional strawberry plants.

Harvested around a half dozen tomatoes that were ripe.

Have some Hungarian Wax Peppers which were almost ripe, probably should pick those today:

And plenty more on the way:

Rest of garden seems to be coming along fairly well:

There will be no shortage of rhubarb, even new plants seem to be doing very well ...

Made myself a couple of BLT's for dinner as The Woman wasn't back yet. Delicious.

Need to get back on mowing today, back and west side of house. Front probably ready as well.

Will be moving into doing further landscaping and transplanting in the coming days ... now that garden planting is all done.

Hope everyone is having a good Wednesday ...

As always your garden
Do the deer visit your garden for snack?

66F clear sky.

Plans for the evening...nothing.

Enjoy your evening all.

Good (Thursday) morning. Overnight Low of 7.6C and it's presently 14.3C, overcast and calm.

Yesterday's town trip(s) were successful with a nice turn-out for the memorial service. The afternoon paddock transfer went without a hitch.

So, this arvo will mean some 'tractor fun' chain-harrowing Paddock #3 + a Z-turn mulching. I have an evening supper/meeting starting around 1730.

That's about it, take care all.

Got lawn in the back and on the west side of house all mowed this afternoon.

Deer starting to hit the hosta in the beds pretty good. Seems like it always starts to happen about this time of year.

So I put up double wire fence around west and northwest planting beds using 40 lb test monofilament.

Grilled some burgers on the Weber with some of that shagbark hickory. Those plus a big salad with lots of tomatoes from the garden were very tasty …

Kick back on the couch, maybe catch something on Prime later … along with a big piece of that sheet cake and big glass of milk …

Hope everyone is having a good evening …

what? no sitting on deck, watching wildlife, sharing ice cream with the kitty? Something wrong?

Taking pebbles to vet today, she was in carrier in back seat. We got ice cream at Chick-fil-A, so I put a dab on cup lid and slid it in her carrier.
She ignored it. Think she was mad at us.
