I am sure that you have noticed the improvement in our two outside Cams, 1 & 2. I think that we have solved the problem of them being out of service so often. That is a relief to me. Those two cams are what I am going to show as the tomatoes ripen, and the time is almost here.

I have checked them this morning and thy look good. Here they are if you want to see for yourself.

There is a way to make these Cam pictures larger. At the bottom of the screen on the right is a spot that says Expansion. click on it and put it in the # 2 position and you will see a much better picture. Be real sure that each function says done before you go on , Dad.

Morning, Dad! Don't feel like you need to make your blog shorter, I love to read all that you write! I think this is just a busy time of year for people. The kids are getting out of school and people take vacations or spend more time outdoor than they do when the weather is cold. If you're not getting as much traffic there are lots of possible reasons... I don't think it has anything to do with the amount of writing you do!
Well, it's 3 am here... I am off to get some shut-eye... have a nice morning and I'll check back with you later!

I have been watching the eagles again this year. I saw the one fall from the nest and was so glad it was OK. Your tomatoes look wonderful as usual. I sent the email to my granddaughters grandmother as she has a upside down tomato cage like that. would hate for them to get hurt. Have a great day.
Dear Dad and Ms. Mary:
I ALWAYS read all of your blog posts, Dad, and enjoy each and every one. Your Thought For The Day is a keeper, definitely. Your plants are looking wonderful! and I see one eaglet "branched" over at WVEC. The falcons are my favorites -- thanks for that link. I've checked in there before and really enjoy seeing the falcons. Hawks and falcons are favorite birds of mine and I miss "my" hawk or falcon from the Mojave.
May you both enjoy the rest of your day! Love and hugs from Jamaka and fams
HI DAD AND MARY! WE ARE HAVING HOT, HOT WEATHER HERE I GA. IT WILL BE IN THE HUNDREDS FRIDAY...I DREAD IT BECAUSE WHERE I WORK IT GETS HOT. I LOVE ALL YOUR ENTRIES DAD, NO MATTER WHAT LENGTH THEY ARE.
LOVE YA,
CARLENE
