Sunny August Days

The apples are getting huge and the pears are joining them. Bees are getting pollen from from the Rose of Sharron flowers. The cali Lillies are blooming.

August 1st

I can't believe that fall is next month. What happened to Summer? The fruit trees are getting so heavy with fruit the branches are almost touching the ground. And it is HOT...high 90's.

Doves

Today we had a Thunder Storm with lots of Lightning ...there is a stick bug living on my kitchen window screen... I found 2 baby doves under the peach tree.

July Summer days

I think that July is the month my yard looks best. It is hot (near 1oo today) but with late afternoon breezes.

July is here !!

July is here and that makes the year 1/2 over already. I alway think that July is one of the months my yard is at it's best. All the trees and plants are so lush and full you can barely see the house. It is now hot..average temps in the high 90's.

Summer is Here

More of my plants are blooming now that summer is officially here. My poker plant has poker flowers and the roses are blooming. My St John's Wort is covered with blooms but one yellow flower was the first to break out. Can you see all the apples hanging over the water falls? It is gonna be a bumper crop.
