Jerry, I love the way your mind works. I don't understand it, but I do enjoy your captions!
[ATTACH] Our hummingbirds love zinnias, probably because these are some that grew from seeds that Netty sent me (the zinnias, not the birds!).
We are awaiting the migration here in Texas. This year's weather has been so strange that we don't really know when to expect the migratory...
As dawn comes later, the hens and I get to sleep in a bit! We've had rain every day (but not all day) since last Thursday, so I haven't been doing...
Woke up to 70 degrees, light breeze, and overcast--hallelujah! The weather got me motivated so I took care of the chickens, picked over the...

Compared to Netty's plans, I'll be lollygagging! I watered the tomatoes and peppers, picked cherry tomatoes and cut a squash, harvested more herbs...
It may be due to heat. We don't get bitter cucumbers in spring or fall, but if we keep the vines alive during the summer, the cucumbers are...
Mart, we have more than usual, too. I'm brewing up nectar more frequently, and in greater quantities. Husband is thinking of putting out a third...
Happy Birthday to you! Hope Mother Nature rewards you with a beautiful day.
