Hey everybody and thanks ๐ for stopping by today! โ๏ธโ๏ธ๐๐๐
Day 3 of the heatwave! It was forecast to hit above 90 degrees today, and for a while, I wondered if it would. I should have not doubted, lol!๐ฅต
We decided to hike much earlier than usual in order to beat the heat. 85% of the hike was shady which was nice, but it didnโt help with the humidity. ๐ We headed to the High Trail so we could do a little trail maintenance. Things grow quickly here and itโs a never ending battle. Itโs fortunate that Keith and Lynne have a very nicely kept outhouse for those times that you just canโt wait!
Itโs stocked with TP ๐งป, jugged water ๐ฆ and hand sanitizer too. Even the toilet ๐ฝ seat is one of those that closes itself!๐คฉ All out in the forest!
While we were that close to their house, we took a quick peek to make sure all is well, as they are in Sweden ๐ธ๐ช right now. As we started back on the trail, we heard an interesting noise that made me say that we might should get moving! Theyโve had a couple visits from our local Bear ๐ป and I was concerned we might have been hearing him. Also, @silvertop left the bear ๐ป spray at the entrance to the High Trail as he removed his pack to make chopping the plant ๐ฑ growth easier! ๐ณ๐ณ๐ณ
Allโs well that ends well, and we made it home before 11 AM. I worked on watering the garden and covering the Brussels sprouts again to protect them from the sun. I also watered everything. It was hot!๐ฅต I came in and made us lunch and mocha frappes. Iโm a pretty good barista! It was quite tasty! ๐
At that point, I was freezing from that and our air conditioning, so I went back out to warm up, lol ๐ and to do indoor plant ๐ชด gardening outdoors. A while back, I got 6 really nice houseplants off of Amazon. They needed re-potting but I wanted the travel shock to wear off first. So today, I replanted them into bigger pots.
They all got the same type pot and are now happily residing on top of my curio where kitties ๐โโฌ canโt reach them.
Hereโs some eye ๐ candy ๐ญ for the day.
The view looking ๐ up from my garden swing.
I planted a few more seeds in pots as well as my last 2 petunia packs from the store.
Soon, Iโll go uncover the Brussels sprouts and call it a night.
Thatโs gonna be it for now. Take care and please continue to pray for Ukraine ๐บ๐ฆ
