I am reading A Cotswold Killing by Rebecca Tope.

78 degrees, sunny, and humid.

I switched up chores this morning deciding to weed the garden and the beds along the driveway first while it was still relatively cool. It was still hot in the sun with the humidity in the 70’s but there was an occasional breeze.

Both yellow squash plants died almost over night. The zucchini is still hanging in there. I dug up one hill of potatoes to see how those are doing. I harvested about five or six small ones. Although the bean plants are still small they do have flowers on them. If we do not get rain this afternoon I need to water.

I vacuumed and cleaned the bathrooms. While the towels washed I spent time getting paperwork and other stuff caught up at my desk.

I’m pretty sure I have another raccoon. I don’t feel like messing with catching it. I’ve been covering the post feeder with a black plastic trash bag for several nights. Night before last the pole feeder was cleaned out. Last night I covered it with two old dog raincoats I found. One tied to the pole and covering half the feeder, the other one covering the other half of the feeder. It was still covered this morning.
