Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

Coffee -- hot and good!! My wake up choice

I'll go count noses, survey anything & everything for animal antics that may need fixing . After that, garden time and tractor therapy!

Slow day so far -- hoping it continues without "surprises".

i think with a busy farm and gardens a day without surprises would be the surprise.

we have a saying here, "Don't look down!" which pretty much is just a way of saying don't look for more things to do because there is always something to do - i'm just glad when there aren't any emergencies or really pressing matters on the list of things to do.

What a good looking pup. I don't know dog breed very well, what kind?

^^ me too!!

Firework sales started at noon yesterday. Sure enough, booms started at dusk. Hard to believe that people spend their money on those expensive things.

They've been shooting them off for a week here. Probably saved ones.

He's a mini aussie. About 35 pounds. Just needed a size reference for the catnip since normal stuff only gets 3 feet tall.

You grow everything bigger at your farm? You have the giant silkies too, right?

Yes, I still have a few of the double size silkies. The catnip doesn't get as big in other spots. It just absolutely loves chicken poop

I was thinking of planting some catnip for my brother’s cat. Now I know where to plant it lol.

I dry it for aunt and great aunt.

I'd dried some before I went to visit great aunt last month. Only a quart bag full because it was just what I'd pulled from the garden. She had it in a cupboard in the livingroom. One of her cats managed to get the cupboard open one night and spread catnip and toys all over the room. The scent was just too strong for the cat because it had been freshly dried. He couldn't help himself.

She said he keeps looking for more obsessively.

June 30th.. Storms basically bypassed us last night, but the mugginess moved out.

Tractor therapy today to finish preparing for the topsoil delivery tomorrow.

Going to poke around inside for a little bit, after finishing this coffee. Can't be firing up the tractor toooooo early this morning
