the winds that came thru last week bent one of the trees in the yard over. it broke off several limbs. i was concerned about the trees. the ice storm we had a few years back did some damage to them also. they must be tough. they are still hanging in there.

we have been getting rain almost every week. that is good for the gardens. the creeks are low though. most of the water rushed downstream. my lawn has to be mowed almost every week. today the heat index was over a hundred degrees. summer is only starting.

last night i went to the casino family night thing held at westridge bowling alley. it is for casino employees and their families. i went as a guest of my sons who work there. we bowled 4 games. i am not much of a bowler but i had fun bowling with my kids.  i am not into competition. i just try to improve my score each game. that worked until the last game when i just couldnt do anything. my best score was 178. not good enough for anyone to recruit me for their team.

they gave us tickets to ride go carts. i didnt ride any since i gave my tickets to my niece. she liked that. they also had putt putt golf but we didnt have time for that after bowling. it was over at nine. so we headed home to rest up for work. the heat tires me out. must be getting old. i keep hearing that.

i have been giving tours of the garden to people that pass thru. they all seem to enjoy it. i wonder why more people dont garden. it is basically free food after initial expenses like seeds and plants. an added bonus is the physical activity it takes to raise a garden. maybe we will have more people get into it. food grown at home tastes so much better than what you can buy in a store.

i wonder what the rest of the week will provide. time will tell.
