A condition that occurs after spending all day in the garden.
I find myself writing this with one week left in the month of June. Where in the world has the time gone and for that matter the month of June?!
After a busy weekend of go go go, we decided to spend our Sunday a bit in the lazy fashion. We slept in, had a big breakfast, watched a movie on the couch and then couldn’t waste anymore sunshine and headed outside this afternoon. It was a gorgeous day, warm weather and sunshine made it optimal garden weeding weather. While Dan took to roto-tilling between the rows, I worked on the rows themselves, picking out thistles, grass and clover between our vegetable plants. It is looking so much better already.
Our garden is in desperate need of some heat and sunshine and a little break on the rain.
I also started a hanging basket with morning glories that have already started to break soil and sprout. And our sun flower row…look out! We have so many seedlings and I am so excited for a big tall wall of sunflowers.
Needing a break from the garden, we hopped in Randy and went for a drive out back on our property to put up a new trail camera Dan got as a birthday present. We decided to put it back by where we believe their to be a den of sorts. We still don’t know what animal it houses, but we have had several lynx sightings. Hopefully this will help us to solve the mystery. We made the loop around and collected cards from our other two cameras we have set up. I love getting back home and turning on the computer to see what lovely creatures have happened across our land. Just in the last month we have had a bull moose, a cow elk and her calf and a plethora of deer spotted on our cameras.
This evening will be a quiet one as Dan and I get back to work tomorrow. I am glad to have Tuesday and Wednesday off so I can get back in the gardens for more weeding. The work is never ending when you have gardens and animals to tend to.
Speaking of…stay tuned for a chicken update later this week!
