I’ve had enough rain to do me for a couple of months. Haven’t heard from Txs to know if she had got her quota.
Just getting back – been looking at a tractor I may buy. I saw where you had a “little experience” on the road that could have been deadly. Many years ago behind a 12 pack and country roads I could kinda get that way. Also, I’m getting that “rain” I have been needing. BH
A little off the subject, but I finished rowing up and fertlizing my garden Sunday after church. So Mon. eve. after my wife got in from work we went in to town to Wal Mart which is about 10 mi. from home. I told her I would meet her at the garden center to pick up some seed and plants. Guess what, sold out. Found the wife and told her lets go to Lowe’s, got there, guess what, sold out. Too late to get to Tractor Supply already closed. I guess with the rising of food costs we’re having a lot more veg. gardening going on. I have been raising a garden for many years, usually I order my seed out of my seed cat., but didn’t this time. Shame on me. BH
We have been short on rain this yr., ususlly we get more rain during the summer than what we have got this time. The temp. is about 2 to 4 degrees warmer than usual also. BH
Just to keep everyone up on the news from down here in Southeast Tx., I was talking to a friend at the coffee shop this am and he had heard we may get a norther in some time this week. It was going to drop the temp. down to about 95. Still hot and dry so far. I need just a little bit of Peggy’s showers to make my pastures happy. BH
I decided it wasn’t going to rain today so I was going to break up my garden for fall planting,so I broke out the Troy walkbehind and started tilling. That didn’t work. I fought that thing for about 15 to 20 min. and didn’t get anywhere in that cement, so I got my tractor, hooked up my tiller and went to work. It looked like a West Texas dust storm behind that tractor. I figure after I get it planted, it will take about 1,000 gal. of water or more to get the garden damp.
Well its Fri. afternoon and it has been a little cloudy off and on today, but still no sprinkles. BH
I had talked to some of my friends and one of them told me he had got about 2 ins. He was bragging that he had a few puddles of water in some low places for a few minutes. It is back hot and dry for now. The weather man said last nite we had a chance of rain Friday. Ya’ll keep in touch. BH
