We have arrived at the last week of August! I already miss Summer!

Corn

The corn is starting to dent…maybe (just maybe) only one more irrigation then the corn will be left to dry.  Harvest should occur in October.

Friend-Snake

The snakes are starting to hole up for the winter…we are seeing fewer and fewer every day.

Feeders-1

The Hummingbirds are still here, although I’m having a terrible time keeping the honey bees off the feeders.

Feeders-2

This sugar water is like some sort of drug to them, even crawling clear in PAST the bee guard then drowning.

Feeders-3

Any suggestions on how to stop the bees from eating at the feeders would be greatly appreciated.

Storm

A huge storm blew in late yesterday evening complete with flood watches and warning out for today and tomorrow, then in will gradually leave just in time for the third and last cutting of the old hay field and to pull the beans.

WOWzer Magic thoughts for at least two weeks (possibly three) of warm drying weather would be greatly appreciated. 🙂 🙂 🙂

Datura

I picked the cannas and the datura as my daily view for today…my tribute to a tiny tropical garden in western Colorado. 🙂

I guess there really isn’t much going on here — which I’m loving. I hope your day is just as nice.

Your friend, Linda
