Welcome to the bone dry and hot edition! This has been one of those summers that for the most part I could have spent somewhere else, a place where it’s a nice 85 with low humidity and occasional rain to keep things happy and growing. I don’t water plants, the trees we had planted yes, but plants, not so much because the entire point behind planting drought tolerant plants is that you aren’t supposed to need to water them! I have established plants that are wilted and looking right awful, we are at day 18 without rain, hopefully we will get some relief from the heat and the lack of rain soon! The leaves have already started to fall, not only that but we’ve already used the cyclone rake once and the pond net isn’t even up yet! The trees are screaming fall but the temperatures continue to say summer.
Tucker and Cooper continue to be a very big source of amusement in our lives. Tucker is growing like a weed and at 6 months was just shy of 70 pounds!
This is the day after puppy first grade, apparently all the learning just exhausts him! He continues to want to be Cooper’s best buddy in the world and while he likes being close to Cooper, Cooper isn’t so sure about that.
As you see they have a very stress filled life here at Logs End.
Things have been pretty quiet this summer, which is great considering it has been too hot to really ‘do’ anything outside or go anywhere with the dogs. Hopefully with cooler weather we will get some more time outside. I know Randy is looking forward to making a leaf pile for the dogs, he may be able to do that sooner than he knows!
Till then Cooper is ready to go!
