"Btw....where did you get that shot glass that is in front of the raised bed? Need one that size.....to celebrate my official promotion to SGT!"

Thank Diane for your shot... congrats on your promotion!

we live in eastern Washington...yesterday morning we needed to take a quick trip to the Portland area to pick up hubby's 91 yro old mother....it was scorching hot down there..109 in places....

I though my garden could survive a day and half without me....we have automatic sprinklers every other day plus I hand watered before I left Saturday morning....

garden would be fine, right?....

wrong.....4 pots of potatoes looked absolutely dead....several squash were wilted....it was horrible....we watered the heck out of them hoping to revive them.....hope so....

we're expecting even hotter temps tomorrow....
