This Week at Iten's Acres: Ergo July 1, 2013


This week at Iten's Acres--and if the weatherman is correct--most of next week too, rain--every day this week was pretty much the same.  (Yes, a thunder storm is pretty--gorgeous even, especially at night.)

Ergo:
Lots of limbs to pick up.  (Lost a big chunk of one of the walnuts.  Too bad it wasn't the whole thing.)
The brush piles in the wild area are getting larger.
The Acres are soggy.
The Sounds of Silence:
     The lawn mower sits in the shed listening and hoping for a brief dry spell so that it can roar into action      and parkize the Acres.
     The grass--laughing silently--grows and grows and grows.  Mocking el Toro.
     The pond moves on toward lake status.
     Many flowers wait patiently for a touch of sunshine to bring them from bud to bloom.

Such is life in the fields and flower beds of Morrow County this end of June, 2013.  Wet.  Can a drought be far behind?  It is Ohio after all.  Where's my FSA?

Yes, "ergo" is a country word,  Where is she?  It's rainy.  'Ergo inside.  Only, in this case it's ego inside--and a little white used to be she.  Who loves watching it rain, by the way.  Strange cat.  Brain dead.
