    We had some storms come through Sun evening. We got 1 1/4 inches of rain that we needed badly plus some wind. Had a small limb come down from the gigantic Burr Oak tree. I was walking around the yard and picked it up. It was about 3 ft long and had 50 to 60 acorns on it about the size of peas. The squirrels are gonna be busy this fall. From the size of the tree, there are probably a few thousand acorns on it!

    We have lots of mulberry trees and the berries are ripe. The squirrels and the robins are in them during the day time and the raccoons at night!
