Wednesday is Mowing Day

I checked my new schedule before I headed home today from work to make sure that I try to at least somewhat stay on track. I was hoping that Wednesday was just lay on the couch day… but not so much luck! So outside I went to mow lawn. Now I’m not sure how hot it actually got, but for sure in the mid 90’s with a lot of humidity. I decided to only mow with the rider, so really that wasn’t so bad. But even though I was just driving around, it got hot. When I was mowing, I noticed all the small apples that fell off our two apple trees.

If it get’s hot or really dry out, the apple trees only keep the apples that it can produce in that type of weather. Not too many small apples actually fell, so maybe we’ll get some rain soon. Isn’t that just how it goes? You get wayyyy too much rain, and then all of a sudden it stops and then comes the heat. The crops are starting to take a toll with the dryness, and with a chance of rain coming up in a couple of days, hopefully we’ll get some rain without the storms.
