It's the first day of the new year and a hot one that's for sure. We spent a quite new year with my brother and his wife and son it was quite and just what we needed to end the hectic year that we had.
Today we relaxed and did as little as possible as it was a scorcher. Nicole and Brook came over with the little ones they sure have a lot of energy even on a hot day. It was too hot to do much so we played inside and used the spa as a pool, we no longer put up the pool outside as it no longer gets the use it used to and we do not want to maintain it and yet it hardly gets used.
Everything in the garden needed water and Michael spent quite a time making sure that everything was watered well. I will try to get up at 6 am and do some gardening before the heat hits us again. There are
raspberries to pick and some strawberries too. We are in the process of cleaning up a few garden beds and covering with compost so that they will be ready for winter plantings. I have been slack with photo's lately but will try to do better in the future.
I am wondering if anyone out there has an answer for getting rid of fruit fly other than spraying every two week. We get so little edible fruit and yet I am hesitant to spray. Do any of you guys out there have little tricks or things that you use to beat this dreaded insect. Advice would be appreciated.
Till next time
