Pictures from today ? A car accident that causes a fire in the forest ? That is really interesting. I hope nobody was hurt.
It is good to have a real firefighter here in the CDR. Some weeks ago someone smells smoke. I am glad to have you here.
Awww why thank you[emoji4] those are the nicest words I've got today, and the first picture was a car hauler fire and the second was a structure fire[emoji91]

Glad your get cooler weather! We are in the 80’s now but back up to high 90’s this weekend!

I’m so ready for cool weather! We have to wait until about November.
October is usually really hot with cool nights.

We are hosting a team party Saturday and I just hosed down our giant birds of paradise because they were so dusty!!!

I saw 98 today [emoji91]

So my went to the Doctor yesterday and he had an EKG done. No blood draw.
The doctor said he sees this a lot with teens. He thinks it was from being dehydrated, so he needs to drink more water.
He actually drinks a lot at home but none at school.
So glad it wasn’t anything serious.

Thank goodness!!

Good morning (just) all

I have been out tidying the garden this morning. The lawn is slowly recovering from the hot, dry summer but still looks pretty awful

There’s a nest box in the yew in the back corner which I cleaned out today. As we suspected, there’s an old nest in it. We were fairly certain that Great T!ts nested in there this summer.

They’re slightly bigger than the Bluet!ts that nested in our camera box.

The corner that I planted this spring with plants for pollinators has gone berserk since the rain, with the buddleja and the lavender flowering a second time, and will need a trim once flowering is over

And a toad has moved into the toad house in this corner :)

The toad is cute. I have some toads in my garden too. I like to see them.:)
