Latestarter's ramblings/musings/gripes and grumbles.

Those temperatures are one of the main reasons we looked for a place where we did. We get some really heavy temps but not like you guys do. Nothing like it was in Charleston. It was almost always about 8-10 degrees cooler here than there and almost always some wind.

Yeah, just to let you know-anything you want done soon-do it NOW. Last summer we hacked out an acre of green briars, we started early and stopped from 11 AM to 1 PM. We took showers, and passed out. The heat is on! That's another reason the garden grows up in weeds-in 100+ degree weather I have a hard time caring about weeds.

I totally missed that you got your goats @Latestarter ......there better be pictures in this thread....i'm going back to look now

 

[misfitmorgan]

I see you didnt let me down on pics

Congrats on your new goats and i won't mention the other portion of the events. Hopefully you love your goats!!

Chocolate Moose (CM) is turning into a moose!

Perhaps you should have named him Chocolate Mousse! But, since he is turning into a moose, I guess you had a feeling

How is that milking stand coming? I can't imagine how bad my back would be if I was getting low enough to milk a goat! Probably wouldn't be able to stand up for a week.


ETA:
I forgot to add, apparently all of our heat went south to you folks in TX. Of course it was unusually warm last week. Back to our regular temps - lows in the 30s, highs in the 40s and 50s. Brought two dump cart loads of wood from the little barn to the porch yesterday. DD1 is going to need it while DW and I are in WI for DD2's graduation.

That's ok, I'll take it. We've had unseasonal cold to cool weather this spring and my okra is sulking and staying 3" tall. I tried talking to it, but I think I just made the plants mad.

 

[Mike CHS]

I just started a dozen okra seeds in paper towels last Thursday and potted them up yesterday. They are already popping up.

Oh the okra came right up, but we had nights in the 40's and okra likes heat! It has to grow and produce so we can invite LS over for some fried okra! He needs to sample the delights of fine Southern dining!

and that does not mean a bowl of cereal........

 

[Bruce]

But LS LIKES cereal!
