Good morning everyone. We're going to get rain today too Gerry so will enjoy a cup of wide awake double dark brew this morning.

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend

Good Saturday morning! Holy smokes, did we get rain yesterday! It had started raining when we went in town to get something to eat. But the time we got there 15 minutes later, it was pouring. We got a little over 2 inches of rain in just under an hour. There was flash flooding all over town. Several rural driveways had washed out on the way home. Luckily ours was intact - just some gravel washed out on the road.

Who knows when I'll be able to get into the tomatoes. I was so close to being done with all the weeding so the guy can come spread mulch.

Good Morning everyone!

Glorious 23 Celsius and some clouds today. Pretty pleasant. No rain. No tomatoes.

Emergency use instant coffee avaialable while we wait for the real thing.

Happy Sunday GameBoomers!

Good Morning Fogfighter and everyone! I've put on the Wide Awake Double Dark Brew and enjoying my first cup.

It's a chilly morning here...in the 50s! It will only reach low 60s with clouds today so it will be a lovely day for a nice long walk.

Enjoy your Father's Day for those celebrating in the USA today!

Gerry

Good morning Gerry, Fogfighter, Draclvr and all who follow. Tomorrow is another day Draclvr, you'll get your tomato's planted yet. Loving the wide awake double dark brew this morning. Do you have any knäckebröd Fogfighter?

I'm headed home tomorrow...it's been a wonderful adventure these past weeks.

Take care everyone and Happy Father's day to all our dads.

Good Sunday morning and Happy Father's Day to all dads in the US!

Hubby likes to grill on Father's Day, so I think he's going to do a couple of "Beer in the Rear" whole chickens. You open a beer and drink half of it. Then you add garlic and other seasonings to the remaining beer and put it in the cavity of the chicken. They make special stands to keep the chickens upright. Then onto a grill on indirect heat they go!

The young man who is working his tail off to earn money this summer with his parent's help came by yesterday to give me a bid on the massive amount of work I need done outside! I have done all this work myself for many years spreading tons of mulch and resetting edger stones. I just can't do it any more, so am more than happy to help this young man out. His mom is helping him with the job bidding, but otherwise they are letting him run with it. We were talking with his dad while he was taking pictures of everything and how bidding is an art that is usually learned by making a few mistakes of underbidding. He hopes to get to me by the end of next week. I love seeing young people working hard to earn money.

I had to wait to have all this done until the chickens were gone. They destroy my hundreds of plants and scratch the mulch everywhere not to mention places we walk and sit being knee deep in chicken poop. I have fought them for 15 years and was so relieved when hubby decided to get rid of them. They went to a neighbor girl and I think quite a few of them are going to be made into pets!
