Aloha garden gang,
Karen, i am sorry to hear about your mom again. Hospice is a beautiful program. They have helped us out with transitioning a few family members. Amazing, loving and caring program. Stay strong and well and good god bless .
I love the charm of the Sears craftsman and the whole story behind them. We obviously tried replicating the craftsman with a plantation twist when we designed and built our little home... we tried... :/
My aunties home was pulled from the pages of a Better Homes and Garden magazine by my MIL back in the early 50's. I guess that was a pretty good way to go here and back then, very glamorous compared to the plantation house, though I do prefer the plantation home layout myself.
Our lovely little PO (just kidding, it has to be the ugliest building ever! What were they thinking???!!!) after a good rain. This happened several times every year for the last 40... that I know of.
This week is supposed to stay in the 90's. Yuck. Not looking forward to it. DH and I decided we needed more fun time together. Too much work, too much covid, too much politics... time for a nice walk in a favorite and very remote spot of ours today. Ah yes, freedom!!! I'll bring my phone to see if I can get some interesting photos in this rugged area for you folks.
Today I was going to yank my finished garden plants but I put my 3 week old chicks in a garden box instead. They can eat some greens, dirt and bugs safely as chicken proofing my garden works at keeping them in too. I have another repeat coming this eve to pick up some older chicks for his dad or uncle. I'm happy to get to be a contributor to this entertaining and self sufficient BYC thing during these unusual times. Chicken chores are good.
Hawaii's C19 #'s are spiking on the main island and we may get locked down again. It is very important for us to protect our vulnerable Hawaiian population though, they have very close family units and may be the most relaxed with the social distancing and mask wearing. They also have many family members and generations living in one home as a cultural thing.
My neighbor kids came by again the other eve to see new chicks and report on how their flock is doing and growing. I really enjoy those kids and they know to wear masks and stay distant. I put some chocolate milk in my fridge for them instead of the gatorade I usually hydrate them with so next time they should get a kick out of visiting. They will be home schooled this year, thank goodness, and I will be happy to be on their route. These would be the neighbor kids that I wrote the scathing note to lol. They have their new coop all built and set up, Jazz... is being Jazz for them. I'm glad she is well, a little surprised she has not come to visit me as she sounds like she has plenty freedom, maybe it is because her chicks are still fairly little and contained.
Anywho, that is the haps in my tiny bubble. Stay well all, love the photos and the dirt stained fingers
