It's been 2 1/2 weeks since any real rain. The pumpkins are starting to show some distress. I ran a sprinkler for hours this weekend - not sure how much difference it makes.
The front of the plot was planted early and the vines are running already.
The back of the plot was planted a couple of weeks later.
These zucchini were about one inch long last weekend. We have an abundance.
Lots of flowers on the pumpkins, squash and gourds.
I was hoping that the sunflowers would be blooming this weekend. They are about 6' tall.
They are certainly budded.
Maybe for next weekend.
It has definitely been hot.
We got one glorious five minute downpour. It amounted to 0.2 inches. Here a video.
It was wonderful
Joan was wise in procuring some additional shade.
It was a lifesaver during some fishing.
We caught a few this weekend.
Lucy got another nice bass.
And a bluegill.
Grandma even caught one this week.
It was exciting.
More ugh...
Not terrible when moving and in shade.
The hikes weren't quite as popular this week.
Climbing up a hill
Last week hike - heading to the creek bottoms.
The wineberries were ripening and we harvested a few. They're really good.
Pumpkin blooms in the morning.
Lots of Ranger rides.
Oops - missed this shot earlier - everybody caught fish except Grandpa.
Had the munchkins to help celebrate my birthday.
Twins.
Fawn hunters.
The bucks seem to be handling the heat ok.
The clover is pretty well burned down to dormant.
The only turkey shot this week.
