Ok so we have been WATERING the garden and strawberries! I knew this would happen, torrential rain for weeks then *POOF* rain is gone heat is here almost 100 degrees. We had to replant some of the corn again. Baby geese didn't eat the entire plant but enough that they didn't survive (I'm talking about the corn here although the geese had better watch out!). Oh well now we will have two harvests of the corn. Blueberry bushes are doing ok (if we can only keep someone from running over them). We transplanted some large bushes a couple of years ago but the drought took its toll last year. Running water buckets out to water the new plants.
This weekend we plan on installing a frostproof faucet by the punkin patch so we won't have to pull so many hoses to get water there.
The rabbits, poultry and goats are all pretty much set up with automatic waterers so that helps and they get a cooler supply of water consistantly.
We are trying to sell off some of our goats that don't meet our criteria for our newest endeavor. Hope fuul this will happen soon
