The official temperature at the airport was 95 degrees but they say the higher in altitude the hotter it's going to get until a certain point- we are closer to the western Cascades than the airport- and the airport is nearer the water...

Melting point
Can't imagine it- but it is only 3:30pm in the afternoon and the thermometer says 100 degrees!

Dragon fly post
It's 3-D heaven:
Get your eyes ready for some eye-popping photos. There is actually a website that sells the 3-D (7-degree) prism glasses. If you come to my house I have a set...and you will probably want to get your own and have fun doing 3-D photos. Enjoy!!!
(There is a movie clip of a back yard visitor beyond the 3-D photos.)
This Dragon Fly had the best seat in the house. We would see it dart from this post up to catch some meandering, unsuspecting bug. I wish I had a camera that could do some high speed photography- the acrobatics are amazing.Wednesday, July 1, 2009
Unusual Vegie Garden
You can see how crowded things are in the garden this year.
I'm standing right behind the peas, and in front of the peas are the tomatos:
Here's Mom, same place.
There are Jalepeno^^^^peppers right here in front of this spaghetti squash.
Under the peas are some carrots.
I really think the carrots got pea'd on...the peppers are getting squashed and we just can't keep a-'head' of the lettuce.
I think we have a very confused garden this year.
The Blueberries are right behind the pea patch:
We wanted to protect the Strawberries from the birds- but probably put them too close to the peas as well:
