I may not post next week. I 'usually' post on Monday but we will be having all the kids over for hot dogs and games. They are all off and that will allow everyone to attend. A post later next week is always a possibility, but I have gotten very lazy over the last few years with posting regular. So who knows.
I don't want to ignore what has happened in Uvalde. I knew quite a few people there back in the day. Most all were work related friends and acquaintances. Most all very good small town folks. I hate what happened there with the senseless loss of life. I won't bore you with my thoughts, there are enough people doing that all over the world. The only thing I will say is that those that use this tragedy to advance a political agenda are reprehensible. If you look a little you will find enough stupidity with all the other opinions. I won't add to that.
Harvested the first 1/2 dozen tomatoes from the garden this past week. Also some loss due to an animal getting there and ruining a few tomatoes. They don't even eat them except and attempt on one and others on broken limbs just lying on the ground. I will try a couple other pieces of chicken wire, but I think these may be squirrels and I doubt that will deter them.
We finally got a little rain. 0.9 of an inch. Was much needed and perked everything up quickly but we need much much more. I was able to skip my watering day. The deer have returned to the yard. Not as much as before. We have water out for them and I saw them use it. I was also able to feed them some carrots. A few took them right from my hand. But when one gets close enough, they dominate the carrots and keep the others away lol.
I am very mindful of the upcoming Memorial Day. Those that have given their lives for our liberty should warrant our thoughts and thanks and not just a hot dog cook out or mattress sale. Take a moment, say a prayer of thanks for their sacrifice and that of their families.
Happy Trails
