Good morning!!!!

[rswyan]

64F and cloudy, headed up to a high of around 70F, slight chance of rain ... although the local forecast said it would probably stay south of Route 30 ... so Rich may well get damp.

Filled three bird feeders with sunflower seeds yesterday first thing, need to refill the two nyjer feeders today. Started Water Buffalo filling while I was doing that.

Then mowed down here around the house ... still have one little spot to do and then I can take the MMM off and put the FEL and box blade back on.

Got the last 6 large hosta sets - the ones we got from a friend - planted. There are no dug hostas left to plant at this point ... :thumbsup:

Watered five rhododendron transplants, one lilac, three azaleas, and a number of hostas, including the ones I planted yesterday.

Gathered up most of the garden tools and brought them up to the house.

The Woman is making noises today about wanting to remove the peonies and transplant them to another area ... a fairly big job and I don't really have area prepped at this point to move them to ... (of course )

Not really sure what's on the agenda for today, plenty of things that need to be finished up though. Might depend on whether any rain ever materializes.

Hope everyone has an enjoyable, productive, and safe day ... :thumbsup:

67°F and .26 inches rain

Plan is to get the roofing metal installed, then who knows. Choice between watching some football vs starting a round of mowing. Leaning toward the mowing.

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

Funny you should mention that, David. The tree inspector asked me if I was a fireman. I told him "Only out of necessity."

Once the new wildland turnouts show up, maybe I'll do a little movie with the firetruck.

Certainly not impressive to look at, especially when I consider how it kicked my butt. Still some flashing etc, but not yet.

Maybe interject a few scenes from the TV series "Emergency" (Station 51).:thumbsup:

Good afternoon! Summer has returned with a vengeance to central Texas. Cloudless sky and 96˚F.

Ron, my little kale and beet sprouts are doing just fine. The broccoli seed was older and they are slow to sprout (the two rows on the left). I might have to replant them with fresh seed If I can find some. I gave them an extra watering early this morning and I set my drip irrigation system to go for 20 minutes every 6 hours. The leaves from the tree are falling in the garden and the RS leaf blower is needed, wait forget that, his machine will blow the garden away.

Pic 1 week after planting.


(Eric, the rows were straight before the earthquake.)

Getting light rain now. Nice sitting on the porch. Birds are really singing in the rain.
Sugar maples starting to turn Brought these from the farm in Ohio as small saplings a few years ago.
