We have finally caught a break on the weather. It's both less humid and hot. Still no rain in sight. Other than the weather report there's not much happening around here. We did get two loads of square bales yesterday. If we don't get rain hay will be scarce, which means it will be even more expensive.
Last evenings side dish became today's lunch. Warm at dinner, cold at lunch, on a bed of romaine. It was actually better warm. That may have been because of caramelized onions and fennel. I planted fennel bulb seeds this year and cannot wait to see how they do. I've only planted the herb which produces fennel seed. They have germinated, that's the start toward my first homegrown fennel.
My friends on the east coast who are living with the thick smoke in the air, I think about you and hope you get some kind of relief, hopefully a change in the weather pattern. Like maybe rain.

Thank you for the thoughts. Today's about minimum activity, windows and doors closed, and the promise of scattered showers tomorrow, yay, let's hope.
You too, if it keeps the price of hay within reach for your eating machines!
Boud, rain would sure help, both there and here. Those eating machines don't care what the hay costs!
Sandra....today we could not smell the smoke and it was around 60 degrees. Grey and quiet. They keep saying we will have scattered showers but it has not happened yet. The Air Quality Index is closer to normal at this hour and I hope it stays that way. Around here, they have been baling hay like crazy and it looks good. I am waiting for a couple hundred bales of second cutting grass. Nice that your weather has improved.
We have had the same thing, scattered showers that never appeared, Lori. I hope it stays that way, too. This is hard on the animals, too. I have received about 300 bales so far.
