It is unseasonally cool--most of the vegetables and berries are late this year. My solitary apple is turning red, but that's because it's poor and about to drop off. The rains came at the wrong time during the spring blossoming, and the apples did not get pollintaed this year (nor the apricots). Cherries did okay, but then the late rains and cool weather cause premature fruit drop on those. And now the bear is here again and he'll even get those poor apples that fall off. I'll pick up the wildlife camera tomorrow and see what it shows.
I noticed today that the poplars are starting to look a little tinged by fall, so I think it may be early this year. And we haven't really had a summer yet! They are promising warmer weather next weekend. We'll see.
Gary and family (and friends) are up this week, stayng at the old house. It is good to see everybody. Megan was very disappointed that this Friday is a "furlough Friday" so she won't be able to go to the DMV to get her learner's permit. She is slated to start Driver's Ed next Monday.
