although thunderstorms are predicted for this evening.
When I looked out into the backyard this morning, I saw another hummingbird at the flowers.
A happy sight to start the day !
This summer my goal is to figure out how to get pictures on the blog. I'll have the time to figure it out, I hope !
Yesterday we , hopefully, were able to start the killing of weeds. I put some Weed Be Gone in the backyard. I did get over 3 hours of sunshine. Hubby did the front yard with the weed bar. We really don't like using chemicals, but having had neighbours who for years neglected their yards, we have been inundated with dandelions and even thistles in the back.
Late afternoon, we were hit with a tremendous thunderstorm, heavy rain and some hail. Some of the potatoes look very muddy and the beets and radishes tops were battered. I'm sure they'll all perk up with some sunshine. That was the first test of the sump pump and new weeping tile and it passed. Oh I hope we can redo the basement this year !
We'll see what the rest of the day brings.[ and why did the colour change all by itself ? }
