I started the day with a little after 6 roll out for a change. I did my quiet times then posted this ramble with my morning cup of hot turmeric tea before heading out to check on the gardens. There was a heavy dew overnight and it was dripping from the upstairs dormer breaking the silent inside the cabin. It's still somewhat dark in the early morning hours when I roll out and so still. The grass was extremely wet and starting to get rather high. I haven't mowed in over two weeks as we have been gone in the evenings and the mornings find the grass just too wet to mow. I decide after getting back to cabin to fire up the riding mower as well as the weed whacker. That kept me busy right up to 7 o'clock when we decided to have a lite supper out on the deck.
Well I must say the mowing and trimming sure brings out the beauty of the yards as well as the flower's and gardens. Nancy was out with her camera recording the results of this event as the flowers are exceptionally beautiful this year. I noticed we have our first Zinnias heading up in the circle drive and if they are anything like the ones we are use to having they will be awesome as there must be a couple hundred plants in that bed. The cone's and Shasta daisy's as well as the larkspurs are so colorful. I did notice a few Japanese beetles but so far they haven't taken over as I've been sending them to their early demise. I have lots of green tomatoes on the 9 different plants and so far they look good. I've been told by some gardeners there is a blight within the county on tomato plants but I've been using dried organic chicken manure fertilizer which seems to kill the blight or keep it at bay. So far so good.
Well we tuned into the Legends and Lies program on the Fox Cable news channel which takes episodes of our history and accurately portrays them and last evening we watched the story of Benedict Arnold and how he became famous for being America's top traitor during the Revolutionary War. It was very interesting and well done with some commentary from Bill O'Reilly and other top historians. All school age kids should watch this re-enactment and learn about our history.
On a sad note I must say this movement by those who are killing our police officers by ambush is out of control and there will be a heavy price to pay. This potus has exacerbated this movement with giving legitimacy to those who are needlessly targeting the police and failing to reign in those promoting these deadly acts. He has destroyed the unity of the races and continues to be sympathetic to their unwarranted cause; sure there are instances where injustices occur and that is usually handled by the departments or the justice system but this random killing of innocent officers is unconscionable. Our total way of life is being disrupted by these law breakers as well as immoral acts of violence. The police stand between us an anarchy which I think this potus wants so he can declare martial law and stay in power. His actions are so repugnant as are those who fail to report in the mainstream media the consequences of his inactions on this divide as well as his sympathy for the Islamic terrorist. Folks these are bad signs of what is to become of our once great nation of law abiding citizens, LATER
