I was surprised to find 2 peaches growing on the Sun Crest peach tree that was just planted in February of this year. Also have a nectarine on the Fantasia tree. Wonder how many there'll be next year? So far all the trees are doing good. I give them deep waterings to encourage root growth. It is supposed to be over 100 degrees again today so made sure everything is watered good this morning. Tomorrow if the air is still I may spray Round-Up on some of the Crab Grass. There is SO much of it. I've been afraid of getting Round-Up on the flower plants. Need to try it though and get a handle on these weeds.
I had a very nice visit yesterday with my daughter Jill, grandkids, Tom and Laura and Tom's girlfriend. We had a late lunch at the Jantz Cafe and I enjoyed hearing about Tom's Sober Grad Night; things they did, etc.
And talking with Laura, going every weekend to Festas in neighboring towns and being in the parade as a Side Maid. Then to top it off, the night before one of the Festas, Laura was in the Dairy Princess contest in Red Bluff. She said she was very nervous, but Jill said she didn't show it. Laura was First Alternate, which means she will automatically be the Dairy Princess a year from now. Laura was the youngest of the 5 girls trying out for it. The others graduated this year or a little older. I know Laura will be a terrific Dairy Princess, she knows so much about the dairy. She has milked the cows by herself when her Dad is out of town. She loves animals of all kinds and wants to be an Ag teacher some day.
Way to go Laura. We're all proud of you.
