It’s hotter’n a popcorn fart here in the Middle of Misery today. Power outage hit the orifice building where I hardly work so I’m finishing the day from home.

Pulled weeds as long as I could stand to after work yesterday. Another 30 minutes will have the 75’ asparagus row finished up. Finished around the rhubarbs/squash/cukes yesterday after work.

Still no sign of the sweet corn. I guess the seeds must have cooked before they sprouted. Oh well...

Howard is good help in the garden. He lays in the shade, snaps at flies, laps water out of his dish, and barks at me while I work.

Thanks for the, ‘Howard Report.’ We expect one every week, now! :)

My Walker Dogs and some of the Plott Hounds will be heading up to Bear Camp with Beau after the holiday weekend.

It will be nice to just have 5 or 6 dogs to care for, versus the 12-13 on the grounds, now. That’s a LOT less chit to shovel every day! :)

‘Someone’ said he is cutting back on dogs and throwing in with his buddy and they will ‘share’ hunting dogs as they bear hunt together all the time, anyway.

PLEASE! Make It So! :)

I hardly know what to do with myself in this puppy-less season, but it IS nice to have the Front Porch to myself, I will admit that! :)
