Friend Theresa sent me the squash picture from Booger County. She said "bigger is not better", and predicted it wouldn't be very good. Get your mind out of the gutter.
The flower garden is blooming now, just barely, got a few zinnias (oops, marigolds) in there. Also, got a few bugs! Tiny spider, and two views of the same skinny long-legged thing on an elephant ear leaf. Also, the drop of rain is balled up on a big leaf. Isn't summer wonderful?
They're baaaack! Those pesky @#$%^* ants are all over the countertop again. Maybe the soaker rain drove them back up out of the ground. So, I'm at war again.
Late Breaking News! Jan makes the paper! Wins Ribbons! Congratulations!
G'ma Airplane, another rainy day

We had ant eradication this past weekend too. We've had random ants around for a few weeks, but all of a sudden the crowd discovered all the yummy crumbs that reside under LAD's eating chair at the kitchen table. So I also broke out the Toro. They swarmed for a day and so far, haven't seen any since. Your's look like pigs at a trough! That spider looks like he has some snacks hanging around just waiting to be eaten. He's a planner, you can tell! Maybe you need to move him in to the ant area! I think i'd rather have the ants.
Are you going to make it to IA? We're not far from NW MO...
That spider is so tiny, he'd not bother you. And if he'd eat the ants, I'd get a U-haul and move him inside. He's less than a quarter inch long. Or SHE.
Don't know when I'll be in Iowa. Tomorrow, Friday, August, ... what a mess this weather has been, eh?
CONGRATS Jan! I like the fog and pink sunset. Too bad it doesn't have a blue ocean in front of it...
