July, The Year Now Half Over

 Hello all,

July 2025 already. It's been hotter this week for us but we will have a cool down for a couple days now.

The Lewis/Clark Valley has started their summer temps. This is later then usual. They will be around 100 deg. F. and above in places down there now.

The garden is in and growing.

Our son in law from AZ. K was up to see what his mom C needed done. She will be going into a care facility as her cancer is getting worse. She needed things around her home taken away and the auction people called. He did so. He is back home and our daughter Co will be coming toward the middle end of July.

K helped with wood and etc. here helping us out with a few things.

We have guest cows from next door over here grazing and a bull here for the summer. Harry is the friendly bull, a highlander.

The bush out front finally bloomed. I keep forgetting what they are. They smell wonderful.

Our grandson B's half sister was killed in a car crash 23 June 2025. Grace just turned 18 in March.

As of the 30th of June my oldest brother Gil has been declared dead by a court. Starting 1 July 2025. After being missing for almost a year on 12 Aug. He had Alzheimer's really bad and had to be on meds.

He served 2 tours in Vietnam in the late 1960's and early 1970's. Even after that he was a kind soul and loved a good joke.
