I know Carolyn! We had no time to acclimate! Good news, today's our last hot day, then 2 of rain, then hot again... Good morning Sunshine... Morning visitors...Mr. and Mrs. Wild Turkey and their kids...
I totally identify with this... Confessions of a Messy Gardener http://www.commonsensehome.com/confessi ... -gardener/
MISSON ACCOMPLISHED!!! Just got all the peaches picked off our dwarf tree before sunrise and the onslaught of yellow jackets!!! The tree is spreading its branches up now with a big sigh of relief...I see homemade peach ice cream in our near future... Peach crop 2013... 4 buckets of peaches total! So many fruits for such a little tree... Peach tree breathing sigh of relief...
Hmmmmmm--Lets see: It's 26 august...sooooooo.....another three months, right? They are looking like they are fattening-up rather well.
I have just read through this from the very beginning! Took a while but my it was well worth it. Your photos are inspirational and very funny
Hi Bunkie,..great selection of pictures,..i had some catching up to do,..wow you always surprise me with the amount of wildlife visitors you have,..fantastic.
A quick little update as things are buzy here. Bracing for a big storm coming in tonight. It'll be a great relief after being in the 90's for weeks now...not our usual! Even our 90 plus year old apple and pear trees are struggling, but loaded with fruit! Tried something new this year and that was planting seed in August, radishes, turnips, carrots, etc... Awesome success!!! I wonder why we haven't been doing this before?! Pics aren't really good this time...have to work on distance... Picking turnips planted in August, and some green beans and summer squash, and taters... the other day we just got home from town and hubs had to get the tractor going and chance the neighbor's long horns out of our backyard...they tore the fence down in a couple of places...note, the apple tree is loaded... finally we have some friends helping us cut/prune the willow trees in the duck pond area...here's what they've done so far, we're cutting them down to a size we can keep them trimmed at...lots of branches to 'create' with... and, sammy, (Petes's on a sabbatical), watching a praying mantis on the screen door...
Hey Bunkers!--So, now you are going to have some willer switches to play with. I am really interested to see what you will come up with. Take some good piccies,now...Oké? It looks like you are having some good harvests. Brace yourself for the storm. I hope that you will have no damage.
