Well Tuesday was another very warm day but at least there was some afternoon overcast skies but no rain fell much to my chagrin, oh well I do believe some wet weather is in the forecast for the next day or so. I started the day much the usual with a well before 6 rollout to my routines that begin with some quiet moments to honor my lord, Jesus, give thanks for another day and to lift several up by name for comfort and healing. All are holding with this post. I checked the backwoods yard upon getting up and sure enough the brat doe deer was out there eating once again my garden down, thankfully its just the gardens in the back woods yard and not the one closet to the cabin which is lush with leafy greens, peppers and tomato's as well as a few sun flowers she hasn't eaten totally off the tops. We actually have one sunflower which is just beautiful in color. Its the sunflowers that produce various colors with many heads on one stalk. I did harvest two nice heads of romaine lettuces for our Caesar salad with supper before the sun got on them.
I headed out after a breakfast of sausage, eggs and toast to piddle around in the gardens and do little piddlings chores as well as check for damage to whats left in the veggie and flower beds. What she doesn't eat the Japanese beetles do so I sprayed them with some insecticide, then I filled up the sprayer with some grass and weed killer and sprayed the wild grasses that grow in the rocks but not in the ground, whats that all about, unbelievable. I did dig up some it before I sprayed it and transplanted them into the once flower bed that I'm turning back into the yard. You would think they would grow in the soil instead of the rock driveway, oh well.
We got a text from Dave who bought the Brown homestead for us to harvest the blueberries which are ripening at his place, since he won't be there for several weeks. We will head up that way this morning and do some harvesting, ours are not near being ripe for some reason. I took my last allergy OTC pill last night which is supposed to last 12 hours. I do think I'm over this malady finally except for my usual morning coughing, sneezing and throat clearing. I do seem to have more energy and hopefully will get back to hiking the mountain a another day or so. I did do some porch setting and reading during the afternoon and we took a golf cart ride to the mailbox after supper. I then tuned into the RNC and listened to some of the small speeches by folks in the party and folks who once did not support Trump, but now are closing ranks for his leadership which the nation greatly needs. We need a strong leader despite his faults and he is a proven leader who is NOT a career politician which makes a lot of difference. The nation needs to be run like a business which this present administration has no idea how to do and have run the nation into tremendous debt for our grand children while leaving US(A) vulnerable to those folks who hate America, LATER
