Summer Cigars

Cigar in the back yard yesterday. 

Cigar in the backyard today. 

The cicadas are out in full force. As a kid I thought the buzzing sound they made was electricity surging through the power lines. 

I'm also seeing and hearing the grasshoppers. It's just that time of school again. 

Dale mowed the lawn today. Josh from next door lets us borrow his electric mower. 

I watched lots of planes come in today. Dale said there's a closed runway so they're bringing all the planes in from the north. One flew by just about every 4 minutes or so. I didn't see a single plane taking off. 

Been doing lots of trimming back lately. Lot's is getting a little overgrown. 

Have a few books I'm working on. Read a little while out in the yard. 

Getting a Little Bit Done at a Time

Another gorgeous day to be in the yard. I did a little more raking of the gardens. 

I also mowed the backyard. Tomorrow I'll try and mow the front. Also got in a quick cigar. 

Mowing the Lawn and Other Things

Spent a couple hours in the yard today. Got the lawn mowed, the front garden weeded, and the front planters planted with impatiens and sweet potato vines.
