Fresh Air----NOT

 I was out first thing this morning, it
was nice to finally get some fresh air!!
But when I went to the veggie garden 
area I could smell smoke!  Having all 
the windows open I went back inside 
and had to close all the windows.  Smoke
had filled the house, again!  Ya know 
I'm tired of the smell of smoke when it's
not a forest fire!  All our plants smell of
smoke and it's starting to take a tole!

After yesterday's clean up I needed to 
dead head and clean up the plants as they
had to deal with the smoke for the past
weekend.  

Smoke isn't healthy for humans or for
plants and if you saw what it's doing
to the north trees you would understand.
The pines are dropping junk into our
yard!  The north property line is littered
with the north neighbor's pine junk!  They
don't water the trees and burn in the fire
pit all the time.  Yes, they are burning
yard debris!

Smoke causes health issues!

I'll be cleaning the window of our home
due to the smoke leaves a film you can see!
I washed down out north door to the house
and the towel was black!  Yes they burn that
much!

Going on 6 hours of burning!

Peaceful day!!
 

8 Total for the week!


Here Comes The Smoke!!

From Canada and fires to the north
of us!   Our plants will take a huge
hit with this.  

I hope folks around us understand
what we live with and remember this
when they fire up their fire pits.  There
are some of us that can't do the smoke!

Stay inside!

I want to thank my dearest friend that
has turned us onto 'Rainmaker.'

Cooling Down Some!

 I spent my morning putting the 
Brugmansia back into the yard.
Some of them were stripped to 
just the top leaves and some are
in bud, which I hope they keep 
and don't drop.  They have a couple
more months before they are moved
into their Brug House for the winter.

The cabbage worms have arrived!

Tree Peony Seedpods

 This has been a strange year!  

This past weekend I noticed that
some of the seeds were yellowing
and I knew the heat was coming.
I sure didn't want them to pop open
and drop the seeds.  So nip nip!

To my surprise they were different
from what I have seen in the past.




















This is what I usually see the seeds shape.





















The above is what I harvested and found
this one was stunning!

8/21/2023

Today was the day to crack them open.
I was able to get a small tray planted with 
some great seeds.  Now we wait to see
if they come up.  I still have a couple dozen
seeds to plant.
