These pictures are the result of a “little fight” between a husband and my beloved little sister. She did not survive the last one. Domestic violence is always a crime; anyone saying otherwise is despicable. And more often than not, the woman and her children are the ones who suffer most.

The tomato forest is beginning to produce. Half don’t make it into the house. Paul Robeson turns out to be the perfect sandwich tomato which is great because about twelve are going to ripen at the same time. I may have to climb out onto the roof to harvest more Sungolds.

Heat index here is 118. It’s actually too hot to stand with a hose to keep the garden alive.

Good hoof on the left, bad hoof on the right. You can see the pocket of air where the white line disease created separation of the hoof wall. You can also see the different angles of the bone relative to the sole.

No matter how many horses you have, there will be days when you don’t have a healthy, sound horse to ride. Rock Star Paint had hoof resection due to white line disease and wooden clogs applied this week. He should recover fully, but in time.

Roses are starting to bloom. Mid season peonies are opening and the dogwoods are grabbing the spotlight at the edge of the woods. #FridayFlowers
