Yesterday turned out to be just the day I wanted: productive, quiet and pleasant. Dogs enjoyed some grooming, progress on writing work, odds and ends completed and some harvesting.
Once again, however, I learned that my corn is looking like a bust this year.
While looking through the patch, I found a bunch of miniature cobs with not much to offer.
What is it with corn, anywho???
I can grow beautiful, tall stocks, which the horses love, but the humans go hungry cuz there's very little actual corn to eat on those stalks.
Tomatoes have more than made up for other garden disappointments.
The gallon buckets above represent two days of picking.
This morning I ran across the article below on Twitter.
Apparently someone gave Artificial Intelligence an assignment asking for stereotypic examples of people representing each of the 50 states.
I scrolled through and didn't exactly agree with every example but found the photos interesting.
The cowboy with the hills in the background represents Idaho----hmm.
No spuds.
Somehow the New Mexico example seems a bit more accurate.

We received some more welcome rain overnight, which is good because another dry week in the 90s looms ahead.
This morning's fog was the first we've seen in at least a couple of months.
Thursday Throwbacks . . . . visual slices of the good life, with peeps, history and other happenings.
Yesterday's sad and devastating events in Maui took me back to happier days when Annie and I spent some quality time with my cousins Sue and Eddie (middle) in Maui.
On that trip which coincidentally had cousins visiting the island at the same time, we met for dinner one night and went snorkeling on another day.
It was my first-ever trip to the Hawaiian Islands, and I've always wanted to return to this beautiful piece of Paradise.
It's all so sad to think of the losses on so many levels.
Our hearts go out to all who have suffered.
