Good morning!!!!

Morning all!
56 going to a nice sunny 75.
Driveway didn't get done with all the threat of rain. Hopefully Monday.
Been having a frequent visitor to the hummingbird feeder.

He's so loud squawking out there he keeps setting off our cameras!
Quite a few jobs done at the apartment house. Need to cut out a dead bush still and couldn't fix the fence. I swear the guy built it with every piece of crap he could find on the side of the road! Pieces of broken steel pipe mixed with plastic pipe. Fencing draped over in spots or tied with twine! I told the wife to start looking for replacement company.
Another project completed in the shop. Will be taking time off for a bit to enjoy the summer. Desert iron wood hollow form. Beautiful colors in this piece! 1 1/8 hole with 1/8 thick walls. Was a real challenge as this is pretty hard wood to work with.

Have a great celebration of the nations birthday!

65.8F and clear @ 06:15, WU calling for abundant sunshine and a high of 88F.

Was about to check WU for temp here and then remembered we now have an outdoor thermometer ... lol ...

Drinking cold, leftover coffee from yesterday ... and it is tasting good.

The "trouble" I got into yesterday afternoon was getting the string run and the line and post locations marked for the eastern perimeter of the garden fence.

Worked out pretty well ... south point on the eastern line ended up just about where the end of the garden is ... so not much change there.

Got almost the entire area inside the lines sprayed with glyphosate (2 gallons) after I got them marked.

East side:

North side:

Decided I would go ahead and put 6' gates on all four sides, rather than just on the north and south.

Last night ended up being Taco Thursday with The Woman doing the honors. They were very tasty, I had 2 with some refrieds before heading back out to tidy up a few things and shut it down.

Had 2 more around 23:00 (with some more refrieds) after sitting outside in the cool evening air for a bit.

Deer was over by the apple tree when I went out, apparently did not like having me out there ... started hissing. Was probably the mama doe with her 2 fawns in tow.

After I ate (again) I headed out to the garage and mixed up anther 6 gallons of glyphosate premix and refilled both sprayers.

No big plans for today ... might go out for dinner later ... or maybe just grill up some hotdogs.

Priority for this morning will be to start getting the peppers planted while I have shade in that area.

Beyond that, just see what else comes up.

Hubbard Blue, Hubbard Golden's, and Guatemalan Blue really liking having their feet in the dirt:

Hope everyone has a Happy 4th of July !

Wish this was a bad joke.
Young lady I dated in high school died the other day.
Parents didn't like me taking her out because I was almost 4 years older.
We had to do a lot of sneaking out.
I haven't seen her in 3o+ years to even say hello but I remember the good times and the steamy nights well.
Hits real close to home.
Cool morning of 60F going up to 80ish.
Clear sky, high UV.
Happy 4th of July Mexericans. Hopefully you're reminded of the great freedoms you have and resist losing them.
Too many gave their lives to get you where you were/are.
