8-8-07 VERMONT: We finally got some rain, 0.35 inches two days ago and another 0.75 inches last night. It only rained because I watered extensively the day before. It’s very August now, the pasture is full of Queen Anne’s Lace and Goldenrod, and butterflies. The new step railing is finally in place and looks great. We have an avalanche of tomatoes, grape tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, gold tomatoes, plum tomatoes, and more. The corn looks like next week.
Bill and Lynn were here for dinner after showing the grandkids Hanover and Dartmouth. Hamburgers, hot dogs, corn and pasta were a hit, with CC cookies and ice cream for dessert. The pond, the rowboat, the dogs and the dinner were a hit with Timmy, David and Samantha.
New blooms: more hollyhocks, perennial sunflower.
White Hollyhocks.
Red Admiral Butterfly enjoying the Echinacea almost as much as I do.
