BHD-----BIG HICKORY DOWN!!!

Another tree fell yesterday. We had a rain and wind come through, dark clouds, flash flood warning. We didn't think that the wind was all that hard. but with the ground so saturated just a little wind will topple tall trees. This hickory was leaning the way it fell and Larry was wanting it down. It broke some limbs on the chestnut tree. We heard it go down and immediately ran to look for the cows! They were smart enough to not be under trees during the storm. Boy we have a lot of wood cutting to do, when we are able to get to it.

As for the ole wives tale of rain on the first/ rain for the next 15 days: it almost did. We didn't have rain on the 12th, but did the next day. I stopped trying to keep up with it after that. We all are wanting it to stop but know that in July and August we will probably be praying for rain. Everything is so green, but the gardens! We can't get in it to plant. The corn is up but who knows if it will make. We have tomato plants in the sunroom that are about ready to bloom!
