I'm an early riser, always have been and probably always will be, getting up by 5:30~6 in the morning. Lately, it's been pretty hot already it's 85 at 8:20...I'm not complaining. It beats the cold. The sunrise was gorgeous~so gorgeous.
a glance over and the peas are high and in full blossom.
our garden mascot even looks hot but not discouraged by the high humidity we have been having...
On last nights walk, we noticed some deer damage to the potatoes. Time to spray with the copper sulfate to keep their noses and nibblers away. Animals do not like the smell of sulfur but it does not damage the plants in the right proportions. We've also sprayed for the dreaded potato beetles with another organic solution~mighty, mighty expensive but it really does work great.
Mmm, come and get your rum slurry lil potato beetles.
Last week the fennel, dill and caraway looked like the photo below one evening.
The dew of the early morning puts a whole new light on the very same plants...it's pretty cool and what a difference a week's growth makes in this heat and humidity.
The weather never keeps grandloves from having a blast.
Hmmmm, I should try that.
I love our evening walks around the gardens, especially to find bits of shade. The difference in temperatures seem like at least 20 degrees.
Come again. I'm sure I will find something more
to write about soon. I feel lazy today, so~
That's all folks~
BE-BEEP
Life IS Good
God IS Great

Okay dear THIS is what life should be like - I am going to post a photo on my facebook with your name on it. Love your home. sandie
Your home is how i picture a summer home and day.
My, I didn't know deer would get into the potatoes! They have never touched mine here. I thought they didn't like potatoes as a result ... and garlic.
Tell Willie he's doing a great job on your garden while you recoup this year. Everything looks great! I too, love your mascot.
'love & hugs from afar'
