GROWTH!


enjoy!












yupe... but on the other hand, i have to cut the grass more often. vegetative growth is just awesome this yr.

Yesterday was practically the first proper July day, in late July.

our day time high here was 80 yesterday. i got out of the house this morning, and it was 65. still too cool for the july. hope aug brings better weather.

With over two feet of rain here since June 1st, I'm afraid a lot a trees have significant root rotting issues. I just pulled out carrots from a fairly well draining raised bed garden and half of them were rotting. Once it turns hot and dry, I'm afraid a lot of the larger trees around here are going to start show just how much damage is done from sitting in warm water logged soil for two months. God forbid a decent ice storm this winter - its been almost 10 years since we've seen a good one.

Good for my rain barrels too!  I don't like mowing so often though.
