this past week, not much rain, temps up into the
80s. next week looks to be about the same after a
few days cool off down into the 70s.

i'm ok with that, it would be nice to have one
cool day tomorrow and that is when it will supposedly
happen. i can finish up most of the heavy digging
and hauling in the first strawberry patch. no
mystery to me now why things have not usually grown
very well in there. the subsoil is your typical
old farm clay pan layer. with it being so dry
lately i need a pickaxe to break it up.

peppers still doing well, tomatoes too, beans
coming along. i'm all caught up on shelling out
everything i've picked that was ready.
