Heat wave
Heat wave. We are in for it now, solid 90* weather with no break in sight. Tomorrow we could reach into the 100* extremes. I hate this weather. For mainly that it keeps me inside during the day. We live in an area where all the trees were clear cut for the development of houses. Sadly all of my trees are at the baby stage. Maybe this weather wouldn't seem so bad if there was shade to be found. Alas.
Things I need to remember to do during this heat.
1. Fill the bird bath (sometimes twice per day) not only for birds but for bees as well.
2. Late evening watering of chicken run grass to cool the birds down.
3. Check and re-check all the plants and adjust water accordingly.
4. Hydrate myself.
5. Bake... at night... oh and it might be advisable to cook on the BBQ hmm...... what should I make for dinner?
Maybe I should buy another fan just incase one of mine goes bust?

Hi Jen. Sorry about your really hot weather. Hope you have plenty of water available for your gardens. Could you put up some shade cloth for the more tender plants? It would be great for your solar dehydrator though....or is it too hot?
