Wisconsin "Cheeseheads"

Hope everyone is safe. The storms here were pretty wicked. A tree fell on the neighbor's house. There were 4 other trees and 3 powerpoles down.

all the weather reports missed the mark for Wausau. Even the national weather report said that Wausau was going to be hit hard. I am seven miles north of wausau, we only got a little rain.
It is like "the boy who cried wolf"
one of these days they will be right and we will ignore them.

Rained here hard and wind couple times. Tornado on ground in Houston CTY MN, look short lived.
Looked like had good head of stream as the storm marched thru the state, more southern part.
Where I live I was kinda on the northern edge of it.
That should help the southern part of state which was having drought issues.
Not much damage here thankfully, just some items blown around to pick up.

Glad to here that nothing got damaged there. We needed the rain it was way to dry.

those berries look good,
blueberry dude down the road wonder if he is going to open. Mile and half down the road and never picked there, but will this year if they open.
Suppose to be nice all week long,
My lower back is now bothering me, might have to go to chiropractor. Need to start on electric fence for sweet corn.
Soooo, need to weed whack some sections with push weedwhacker. Have to see tomorrow might have to issue a weedwhacker license to my daughter. She helps me with setting up the fence.
weedwhacker is ready new coil, sparkplug, aircleaner.

I hope it stays the predicted weather for this week. My buff orpington thought it was nice enough to sleep outside.

i'm glad you got your machine running. I am still waiting for my carb to show up. it is a day late. in the meantime i am working on the tiller. it has me stumped. i think i might have to take the flywheel off and check the shear key.
i have been neglecting my grapes. with all this heat and humidity, i am sure there is some pruning or training to be done.
our raspberries are ripening.
the black raspberry vine has rebounded from the beating i gave it last fall.

Weedwhacker worked good today. bought a t post puller couple weeks ago. Tired of pulling them by hand, then I bend some. TPost puller worked good.
Cleaned around sweet corn, bit more cleaning getting ready for electric fence.

JV hope your part shows up and not like mine, never showed up.
Your concerned about the flywheel key, must be concerned about the spark?

Have alot of pears I should spray, well will see. Not sure might be to late. Actually have some apples. Fertilized fruit trees, but should have gave them more fertilizer.

Well will see if 21 days from tassel to corn, some articles say anyway.
