Evening folks. No need to wonder about me in a hurricane. I'll be fine every time. I've survived many. They bring the water tables back up and provide me with enough firewood for about two years. I've been up to a month without power, never missed a hot meal complete with fresh meat and seafood and taught my Eagle Scout son to do the same. A country boy can survive. I always gave my son a long leash too Rave and he has not disappointed me. Also very different from most his age group. Cept the girl he married from Detroit got quite a culture shock lol. We love her dearly but a country girl she isn't. Arthur provided us with some badly needed rain and a nice balmy breeze but that wuzz about it.
Good night. Here are some flowers that were growing in Watkins Glen. I don't know what kind they are. The leaves look a lot like grape leaves, but I never saw blossoms on a grapevine. But if there are grapes, don't there have to be flowers first?
Morning Awsum. Happy 4th to you too, and all the fine folks here. I feel all independent today.
Happy Fourth of July everyone.
Aside from picking some cherries and some veggies, I am off the work detail today!

I've got to mix some liquids and fill some CE3s for sure today. If the rain stops I'll visit the garden and check for wax beans and, maybe, snap peas.
Happy Fourth of July
Everyone!!!
I might be running away from home today to spend my weekend ... elsewhere. I have double the young folks here and a dog of the little and yappy variety. Too many life forms tends to make me edgy. I'm thinking that making good my escape would be a great idea.
So! Have a great holiday weekend!!

I think what you captured there is Rubus odoratus (purple flowering raspberry). It has no thorns and maple-like leaves and a raspberry-like fruit. Dunno for sure. They aren't native here.

I'm not good at plants, I think the only ones I can identify for sure are tumbleweeds, stickers, algae and moss.

That looks like it! Thanks, Rave. I can always depend on you to ID plants.

Good morning/afternoon, Volties. It's a cloudy, rainy 4th of July here, but the hurricane is going to miss us. 
It is now 74 deg out. I just returned from a walk, wearing jeans. I don't care what anyone says, I should have worn capris. I slipped a bit, and bought two s'mores brownies from an Amish boy. I also discovered a low-cal snack. They put in sidewalks in this tiny village last summer. They put straw where they had disturbed the ground, and I saw plenty of wheat. Unripe wheat-berries are a nice snack!! I think I will pluck a head every time, just at the point where they are nice and fat, but haven't yet outgrown their covers. Anyway, I walked to the campground and around it, and back home.
I am happy to hear that from you, Jerry.
