July goals

 Finish the basement ramp.

Repair garden box that side came lose.

Add rail to grape harbors to start guiding the veins along.

Hang the cedar birdhouse that was repaired

Add trellis to more of the garden beds

Lay weed barrier between rest of garden beds.

Finish laying gravel after basement ramp cement is cured (some of gravel will fill in where there is no dirt)

Repair deck board

Cut board for twin bed support

Install tower for tv antenna

Decide what to do with fuel tank (either fill it with fuel or take to scrap yard or sell it?)

Continue to water, weed, harvest, process, and plant gardens. Blackberries are coming on, a few small blueberries is coming on and purple beans are coming on.

There was mention of doing the front porch... I just don't see it as I walk on it several times a day to get to the gardens and compost pile.. Maybe in Sept

  1. I see your list is like ours. If we could just go forward instead of always having to go back and redo or repair things we might get ahead!

  2. Every time you mention berries and jam making my mouth waters. I love jam from almost any kind of red berries.

    As for the flies, we have a water activated fly trap that has some kind of stink bomb in it that gets activated and attracts the flies. We have it in the back yard but far enough away from the patio that we can't smell it. Of course if you get right up on it then you can smell it. I don't know if it would be strong enough to fight off the number of flies you have, but it works well for us.

    1. we had one several times at other homes. But the dead flies would have to be removed daily because of how thick they can be. I noticed when E has the horses at the pond we have less flies... must go out to bug the horses LOL
