Coffee anyone ?

Worked outside most of the morning. Looked at the temp, it's a very dry 90°F outside. I was melting and had to come inside...lol
Still pretty nice all day here. Windy today, fruit trees will need water tomorrow. I found some apples on 2 trees. Peaches were frosted as were crabapples. The blackberries rallied with a second bloom. Got my roses planted and mulched. Enormous fire ant mound to be dealt with further down in that bed. Hot weather is on the way though.

I thinned our apricots today. Need to do the peaches next. We don't grow apples anymore. Raspberries, blackberries, strawberries and tomatoes are blooming now.

I'm glad I don't have to deal with fire ants.
 
The wild blackberries are in heavy bloom here but, need rain for decent berries. There's a good batch along a ditch bank. Haven't checked yet to see if there's water that far up beyond the usual runoff. Hoping so. Same with elderberries -- no rain, no berries and they should be blooming about now.

Worked today. Well, everyday this week I will -- tightens up your farm work time. Thankfully, kidding is done. Two look like there's a slight possibility they were bred late -- watching in case there's summer kids coming. One of them, if NOT preggers, will be sold. Praying she is, really nice doe and from a good milker. But not bred & she's 2. Strange. She has had some behaviour changes, not bad ones, so 🤞🤞 I'd like to keep her but need her working.
