Fine July weather, farmers are working both late and early. Some Combines run all night. Men are making hay and combining at Gip farms. Mary just brought some Ice for my Tea and a lunch and took water to drink for the Cistern at the Store isn't kept clean. Boys throw trash in it.
I watered some of my flower beds. The hot sun and winds dry ground out and make it very hard and baked. Gathered my Gladioli for Vases. They are so very pretty, also the Orchid Hardy Phlox that are full of blossoms. The Red Harmony Marigolds make all the long border so showy and bright with their colors. The large Yellow Marigolds are in bud and will bloom next month. Scripture reading Acts 5:12-32
I work among the Vines and in Shade when in the Yard as the hot Sunshine makes me weak. It is so hot, the long day is wearisome. Mary and Ruth Reed went to Canute to get Charlene at night. I sat in cool moonlight for hours until I got so sleepy I could hardly rouse myself to go to bed. The big heavy Trucks make so much noise that I was restless the remainder of the time.
