temperature gauge is aclimbin' around here! Every day is a little hotter than the last! Nothing new going on, just some installing water lines, and transplanting perennials. Which, by the way, is NOT a very smart thing to do in this heat! Don't worry though! I found a nice shady spot between trees where they could hopefully take root and grow strong again!
The winds finally died down around here! I got really tired of picking up a hundred trees off the ground all day every day, so we put up some additional wind-wires...and the wind disappeared! It just figures! I could have been doing other stuff at the time, darn it!
On the diet front, I've been sticking to basic Atkins for a week now, without problems. The good news is that the heat kills my appitite, so I should be back to my goal by the end of this week, with any luck!
We are taking a family vacation next month on the 18th of July, and won't be back until the 29th. Believe me, by the time we land here at the airport, I'll be so happy to touch Fresno soil, that I'll kiss the ground! That's a long time to be away from your own bed, ya know! Wouldn't it be nice if I could face the vacation without worrying about still trying to reach my goal?? I'd like to get this thing over with and never look back! Do you think that'll ever happen??? Me neither!
Whats up with everyone? If there's anything new or exciting that I may have missed, e-mail me! Inquiring minds wanna know!!

It's the old Murphy's Law on the wind wires. If you hadn't put up those wires, the trees would have gotten knocked down again..lol You're really doing great staying on track....I'm so proud of you :) I bet you'll be at your goal by vacation time. Where are you going? Some place really exciting???

Are those your trees in the picture? If so, what kind of trees are they?

Yep!! those are a small ion of my trees! That variety is the watermelon-red oleander bush, trained into a tree. They're about 4 ft tall right now. On our vacation, we're going home to see family. Minnesota, Wisconsin, North Dakota and Canada just for fun! ;)

I've been trying to train a Wisteria into a tree. It's been taking me quite a few years to do it because it was just about 2 feet tall when I planted it. It took years before it flowered. I got 5 flowers on it this year which is the most I've ever gotten. I planted it near my house and it's really hard to keep it tamed down. It just grows EVERYWHERE. I've got to read up on it to see how I should properly prune it so that I get more flowers. Your vacation sounds great! There's some really good wine in Wisconsin. I can't get it in PA because of the weird liquor laws in PA. So if I want it I have to drive or fly there to get it. Wisconsin is pretty far away from me. The wine is made by Spurgeon Vineyards and their winery is located in the southwestern part of the state I think. So if you see some while you're in Wisconsin you could check it out! :)
