Hope your doctors appointment goes well Barb. I hate fasting, and feeling hungry.

I wore a T-shirt I got at McMurray Hatchery that reads: "Fluent in fowl language." I let them know that although the spelling was different, it perfectly conveyed my sentiments about the late start. They laughed. I didn't.

true about funerals are for the living. but at my age, there are fewer and fewer living. lol
Phil was a county detective. so the funeral was swarming with cops. most of them weren't even born yet when Phil retired. i think they were there just for the snacks. lol (no donuts)
I had a CT scan on my neck yesterday, now I wait for an appt to see what the next step will be, I already know, no surgery.
the injection into my shoulder a week ago did not do anything spectacular
i pulled a carrot the root was over 7" long. the carrot is just starting to bulge out.
have some beet greens about a foot tall. i hope some of the energy is going into the root.
lettuce has not bolted yet , despite the high temps. it is seed from Menards.
bib lettuce by Burpee.
grapes are turning color. have to get some netting over them.
black berries are going strong. sil says she wants to come pick some. that is how people are: they think the berries will wait until they feel like picking.
Annie is shooting for 2o pounds for a batch of wine. almost there.
she is not the champion picker she once was.
once, she picked 1oo pounds in one day.
Barb, wrap a towel around the chicken to work on them. they are durable and can take it.
