75F and "Fair" @ 13:00, heading up to around 79F for the day's high. Ten Day forecast much improved (less rain) over what it was a couple of days ago (showed rain every day)
Was pretty overcast when I got out there yesterday so not too bad without the sun. LWS says high temp yesterday was 87.3F.
Got the last 3 Bush Beefsteaks planted and caged along with the last 3 Sunny Boys. Went back over the Sunny Boys applying bone and blood meal to them which they didn't get when they were planted.
Had at least one deer come bounding out of the woods behind me over along the east edge of the yard while I was doing that. Not sure what spooked it.
Started taking off the aluminum tie wires on the first cattle panel so it can be taken down and used as an arch trellis, replaced with a remesh panel. May get back to that today, if it's not too muddy out there.
Woman made a rhubarb cobbler and took that over to the neighbor's for dinner, brought back back one piece for me. Can't say I liked it as much as the strawberry rhubarb pie which I thought was just fantastic. The Woman did care for the pie (... of course ...

Line of strong storms rolled through last night, we didn't get the worst of it but LWS still showed it dumped 1.72" in probably 1/2 hour or less ...
Raindrops were so big when it started I thought it might be hail.
The lawn (all areas) was already at the point of needing cut again ... and that was before the rain ...
Insect netting and landscape staple order from Amazon finally out for delivery (1 day late)
Agenda for today:
Check remaining plants on shelves to see if they need watered.
Finish taking down the two cattle panels, maybe get some of the remesh panels put up.
Trip to Menards later for masonry ladders to use for hoops for the brassicas (cabbage and cauliflower), probably pick up more mulch as well.
Hose off short t-posts so they can be repainted for arch trellises.
Plus whatever else comes up.
Hope everyone is having a decent Thursday ...
