a few people have said this is the best year for gardening that they have had in a long time. dont know bout that but i am having good luck with a number of things. i pick cucumbers and zuchinni every few days. i had my first picking of green beans. my pole beans all doing good. so are my gourd plants. my crooked neck squash are growing fast. i havent seen them this big this early. i should be able to dry alot of them if they continue to grow like this. i have a bunch of cantalopes on the vines. i usually dont have any luck with them. my corn is tasseling already, except for the ones i re- seeded. they are still in various stages of growth. i have fresh potatoes and onions whenever i need them. carrots are ready,especially if you like them young. my lettuce has bolted though. i had alot of salad before it did.
i have been watering my tobacco. i had my second picking that i fixed today. it is doing good. i also watered my tomato plants. they have fruit on them. they look good. the weather guy said it may rain tonite. or it may not. like that dude is a real genius.
it is time to pick menashkuk. i noticed the purple flower the other day. havent had time to get to it cuz i helped at a funeral. i will put some away tomorrow. i use it in sweat lodges. i like the smell of the plant.
i got picked for jury duty at the end of the month. my civic duty and all that. they dont tell you whether or not you will be called to serve on a jury or not, but you have to be available. you have to wait til the nite before and call a number. i had a speaking gig coming up around then. it woulda been another road trip. that jury bullshit will end that. then it could be that i wont even be called. thats justice for you. i could made some righteous coin.
i was talking to one of my bros the other day. we both have noticed that there are alot of rabbits around. havent seen this many in awhile. things must just go in cycles. i have a few that hang around my garden. they havent been a problem. i hope they make it til winter. then the game will be on. my dog ko nu gish tries to chase them but cant catch them. i use to have beagles that could catch up with them. my daughter bought two beagle pups recently. i like those kind of dogs. my favorite breed.
tomorrow is my youngest sons birthday. he will be 22. we would have a cookout for him normally. thing is he jetted off to vegas. hope he hits a big jackpot out there. might have to cook out when he gets back. we like to have family get togethers.
i noticed in the news a few days ago they got that harold and kumar guy to be some kind of white house aide or something. he is suppose to help draw asian support to the presidents cause. may be on to something there. why not get that mclovin guy too. he could be like an ambassador or state department guy. let comedians in. they couldnt be any worse than politicians. that way if they fly off to argentina with a mistress and get caught, they can just say it was a joke.
speaking of jokes we got a general council meeting coming up in a few weeks. i havent been to one of them in a while. i got tired of the once every three months saviors. they disappear til the next meeting. dont know how we make it for 3 months without them.we must have a real terrific council now cuz they havent tried to get rid of anyone for awhile. i may go to this one just for the hell of it. it may be entertainment. gotta take your amusement where ever you can get it.
