Oh wow! That's really pretty.

Seems like you got our storm from yesterday. The sun's finally out at 6 PM and upper 70's when it's too late for Sapphire to be out. I've been using a blanket on and off all day.
I have not! It’s gorgeous!
I've missed being on here. Getting our farm started has been a busy 2 years, and I took a PE teaching job that was very unexpected. I wasn't even looking for a job. I started doing that last September. I hopped back on the forum looking for Tom's plans for a single sulcata night box because someone gave us a 35 pounder. That makes four now, and my husband wants to strangle me. He went with me to look at him and agreed he needed to be rehomed asap. Now we need to expand the tortoise yards yet again on top of the already huge pile of todos for the farm. The sheep need fencing, turkeys need a coop, and he needs to get our spare car running because the 16 year old got a job and needs a car by the time school starts again. So much to do all the time. I'll try to get on here more often. I can come in an enjoy the AC while taking a break from caring for the farm animals.
Yes. I remember when you moved to the new farm. It's really hard to get started all over again but it sounds like you're starting to get there. ? It takes years especially with kids and animals. But stuff must be getting better cause ur back ??
My lilies bloomed 3 weeks ago. If they had waited until the last few days, they'd be flatter than pancakes with all the downpours we've had.
I already have 4 and not planning getting any more. But if they can't find it a good home and it's defiantly a female I could fit it in.This popped up in my email this morning. Hey @Turtulas-Len !

Are you on facebook? I have a farm page with tons of pics, Creeping Acres Farm. I'll put some on here later today. They are all on my phone, and I'm on my computer right now.
Yes! That was quite the front that moved through the area. A ton of rain, temps dropped, & wind.!
After all of our storms over the last 24 hours, we are back to some decent temps @ 71 F, but 76% humidity. Cool n soggy.
Castor Beans are now starting to develop their true leaves. The second banana flower unfolded yesterday during our thunderstorms.
Here are our tortoises. We have three sulcatas and one Russian. We also have three St. Croix sheep, three African geese, 13 chickens, 2 turkeys, 2 mini horses, and 9 ducks.

I'm not a fan of lillies but that's beautiful
I hurried up and mowed this morning. Trying to finish up the turkey coop before it makes it here.
Good afternoon/evening all.
Pretty hot here today but nothing like what your experiencing - especially Canada.
Make sure you all stay as cool as possible.
Rain is likely here for the weekend but I hope it's not too heavy because the nasty neighbours have gone camping so I don't want them coming back early to spoil my weekend.
Had a nice day with a 60 mile round trip to a shopping outlet which turned out to be a waste of time as I didn't buy a thing.
Then I tried to get a bag of concrete to fix a crumbling stone wall (damaged by same neighbours) but it's almost impossible to get any, anywhere. Maybe something to do with the shortage of lorry drivers or Brexit or just lots of building work happening at the moment....... ?
So not a very successful day but I enjoyed the drive and being out and about.
Hope everyone is having a good Friday.
