Your garden is looking GOOD! And the bee! You have bees again! Are you getting any rain? We haven't had any for over 2 months and it is dry, dry, dry. With our sand, there are places where the mule spins tires and we have to put it in 4 WD. Crazy. Your garden is lush, green and awesome.

NOT much rain to speak of. Got about 1/4 inch a few days ago. We water ALOT

May 3 we got maybe 1/8th in the rain gauge. Hay is scarce. We were able to find hay and buy it, most hay cutters are out and can't meet the needs of their customers.

Do u want me to ask around? I know some guys with a few round bales. But I don't think it's good horse hay

I wanna thank you guys for all your continued support. Y'all have been awesome and help me keep motivated

We're set. Our hay guy told us to get hay and get it now. He doesn't have enough for his own cows. We found and bought what we'll need for the year, then that guy ran out. It's going to get real bad if it doesn't rain soon.

Looks good! Time for some yummy fried squash

We are skipping rain/tornado season and going right into 100°f droughts. Don't worry the storms will be around come fall

@Chic Rustler do you have to pay a lot for water? Is it an option to dig your own well at some point? Or do you already have your own?
I have a bunch of barrels out to collect all the rainwater I can, but it's been dry here too. We did get a nice rain last night, and I'm hoping for more this week. My barrels were almost completely empty before last night's rain.
It's great to see the bees in your pictures! That's a picture of the week entry.
