Good morning all y’all! Mr. Holstein is off to work. Indoor house work to be done before taking Dad to an appointment at noon. Forecast is only 93°F/34°C but “feels like” will be a few higher. May attempt yard sale tomorrow. What are your weekend plans?

I’ve been asking about that for 25 years! LOL How could mid life crisis occur at 50 if you aren’t living to 100? One restaurant we frequent gives “senior discount “ to 55+. Another place it’s 60+. Some charts call me a Boomer, others a GenX. Just pick one and stay with it. LOL
Okay. I’ll stop now. LOL

Good morning all y’all! Watering done, first harvest from tomatoes. Probably headed to town this morning.

Good morning all y’all! Just came in from watering the garden, adding some organic fertilizer, and treating for blight It's 74* but 88% humidity so it is tropical out there. Gulping down some breakfast, and water. Laundry is piling up so I should tackle that before anything else.
Yellow squash coming along!

I do, in West Virginia. They need protection from the elements (good coop). The Backyard Chickens link is great for information. A general rule is they can be cold, or wet, but not wet and cold. I don’t supplement heat, I just keep any feed and water in the run not coop, use a thick layer of litter (horse bedding pellets and wood shavings) and block wind and drafts.
The first tomato of my season.

My dogs, Betty and Bob, are very heat sensitive so we start using A/C sooner than I like. I also thank the Lord regularly for a spouse who works a job that allows us to pay for the A/C.
Home can protiens. Make sure you have enough available to save freezer foods in case of longer term power outage. Did you inherit them, were gifted them, how did you come to have more than you know what to do with?
I know posts about the heat are already tiresome. It’s 74°F/23°C on the Holstein House front porch ay 05:54 EDT.
The phone app predicts temps in the upper 90°F/32°C’s the next 10 days. That many days in a row is a challenge for us in West Virginia.
Is your current weather at, above, or below normal for this time of year?

100°F/38°C in the shade. 
97°F/36°C is kinda warm for my part of West Virginia, USA!

Good morning all y’all! It is already 71°F/22°C out. Light enough out to water the porch garden so taking care of that first thing. Get your own water in early because the heat will suck it right out.

I love making custard pies. I haven’t mastered meringue. I am getting better. LOL
Made dad a coconut custard pie this morning. Forgot to take a picture so you’ll have to take my word for it. LOL
Here’s a shot of the clock/thermometer/hydrometer on the front porch (in the shade).
