We are back to having wind
…not a soft breeze, or a lovely gentle rush of air
But the blazing strength type of wind which whips your words away in a huge rush
The kind of wind which bends trees and drys out the land
Still, it’s all good.
Irrigation water has been cut back, causing us to change it every 8 hours, three times a day.
I think the Gods are watching us…
To see if we care about the gift of land, and sun, and air
We try to be good stewards.Β It’s time-consuming, but very rewarding.
Then of an evening, we like to watch the world slow down.
Each and every day
Priceless.

I think the two of you are excellent stewards. And Iβm thankful you share the beauty of your work with us.

The cloud photos are awesome! I had to water the sweet corn because the smaller seedlings are having a hard time. I hope you and yours are doing well. Thanks for sharing!

We are having lots of wind, making it hard on everything trying to get bigger. And they cut our water back…so now it’s change the water every 8 hours no matter what. Early for this time of year.

Sorry to hear your water has been cut back already. I had a feeling we would have a dry summer here and it is beginning to get that way. We have rain in the forecast so we will see what happens. This time of the year it either pours or rains very little. We just have to hang in there and to the best we can for our plants and gardens.

That is where we are now. Cool enough I have to shut the windows early morning, but we warm up fast enough to open them back up.
