Best Seller.

8-14-18 VERMONT: We continue to get lots of rain, I dumped an inch out of the rain gauge this morning. Today is hot and muggy again.

We are all watching the TV news and reading the papers to keep up with the Omarosa doings. Omarosa’s new book, Unhinged, was ghosted by Valerie. The last time we looked, it was number 3 on Amazon’s List.

Back in the garden, there are lots of monarch caterpillars on the milkweed in the pasture. The chrysalis, that we have been watching, appears to be unchanged, but it takes a week or two to fully hatch a butterfly.

New blooms: cup plant, Ligularia dentata.


Ligularia dentata is regarded as a 'foliage' plant, grown for the big purplish leaves rather than the flowers, but I'm fine with the flowers, a orange/yellow daisy-like bloom late in the season.

More deer with the game cam. That's a fawn getting to be almost full sized.

A six-point stag who knows how to pose.
