Farm Update
was told clodette looks scary?
Well I just found my shift key where Lily
my cat decided that the wireless keyboard I use to write with looked better on
the floor than on my desk where she lays when I am not around to shoo her off. Gravity
being what is and after dropping about 3 feet to the floor, it dislodged the
shift key on my left side of the keyboard and I couldn’t find it. Even though
you have two shift keys, try using just the right one. But this is not all the
qualities that Lily has shown lately.

Bowser my sister’s dog ran into the house
last night and proceeded to make a terror of himself like usual, looking for food,
and generally being a pain in the ass. Lily was not going to have any part of
this. Apparently Lily had him trapped inside the house inflicting enough pain
on him that he repeatedly cried for help. By the time I arrived after I heard
him yell out, he had managed to get himself out but went crying back to mom’s
house with Lily chasing him out the door.
peas
I don’t know what happened but I am sure
it had something to do with him getting to close to her kittens and being a
mother she would have gouged his eyes out to save her babies. I don’t think it
came to that, but hopefully it instilled some fear in that little shit and
hopefully he won’t be in my house again. Love the little guy but he can be a handful
at times.
It was funny as I walked in the door to
check on Lily and her babies, Lily acted like nothing happened and headed to
her food bowl. Kinda thought she may have been taste testing the little dog to
see if he was edible, instead just spit him out. From the way he was crying you
would have thought she deballed him again.

after i had planted it 5-20
Well my peas are blooming and it won’t
be long before they set pods. , as well the potato tower is doing great with
some shoots over a foot tall. The tomatoes in the tomato tower are over a foot
tall with thick green healthy stems. My flowers are blooming great including my
hibiscus. Also the Hawthorne tree is blooming beside the greenhouse allowing
the scent of its lovely white flowers to hang gently in the air. The apple
trees I managed to save from our fields that I plan on selling as deer plot trees
is also doing well. I don’t know that even with the market for them that this
is what I want to do with them. I may instead try my hand at starting to graft
buds on these trees. I have an early harvest tree in the wrong place and would
like to have a start of of it before I do away with it. it hangs over an access
road where the dump truck continually snags it every time I go on the hill. It does
have nice apples though , and maybe by grafting I can duplicate the tree.
