Yikes____noticed several plants leaning away from the stakes and I haven't tied anyone yet. Some are approaching three foot tall and if a good old Iowa storm hits they will topple. Time, time where do you go!! Guess it just takes more of it to do less each year. Or it takes a few more breaks a little more often. And after 11:00 a.m. I crawl into my cacoon in the air until after 4:00. Then after being in the air it seems really warm outside. Luckily we've only been in the 80's and low 90's. But with humidity up around 60% or more it seems really hot.

But save the dahlias is a must. The stakes are in place so Friday morn, the first day I'll be home I must____I repeat MUST do that simple deed.
