azkaisr Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 After riding a little this morning on the GT, I had breakfast with my Dad and decided that I needed to get out and check on the garden. Now this sounds like no big deal but here in the desert. At least it wasn't 110 yet! Jesus Perez says I am completely loco to go outside but if I need him, he has my back. The Hibiscus are in full bloom And as long as I keep watering 2 times a day, the roses don't mind the heat either. Though they don't have the aroma that their temperate cousins have. The fish still hasn't got that bumble bee Grapes are almost ready for harvest. Figure right before I leave for Colorado this week Should be a really good harvest! Any one else have anything in their gardens worth sharing? Kaisr Link to comment
Les is more Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Jesus Perez says I am completely loco to go outside but if I need him, he has my back. Jesus Perez says, "uh, yeah . . . you go on ahead--I'll be right behind you--no, really." I like your little refuge back there. Thanks for the show! Link to comment
Francois_Dumas Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Any one else have anything in their gardens worth sharing? Kaisr Actually yes... but I am composing a book for my mother with it, so can't share it here yet (not that she reads BMWST, mind you , just too busy with it). Link to comment
Calvin (no socks) Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Tom, but at 107 degrees it is a Dry Heat. love the garden...I think the bumble bee will eventually get away. I have aboreal wild grapes in the tree canopy. They come in much later in the season. The aroma is spectacular. Link to comment

Bullett Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Oh, I dunno, I think Jesus Perez looks like a very "worthy" cat. Link to comment
doc47 Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Rocks, your garden rocks! AZ--lovely! What kind of grapes are they? Jesus Perez????? Reminds me of a joke. (Take warning.) A burglar breaks into a house. As he's creeping around he hears a voice intoning,"Jesus is watching you!" He glances upward momentarily then goes back to creeping. Again he hears the voice, "Jesus is watching you!" Again he looks upward, sees nothing and goes on trying to locate the valuables. A third time he hears the same voice, "Jesus is watching you?" He points his flashlight around and sees a parrot in a cage. "Jesus is watching you!", says the parrot. "Who the hell are you?", says the thief. "I'm Moses.", says the parrot. Says the thief incredulously, "What kind of people would name a parrot Moses?" "The same kind of people who would name a Doberman Jesus", says the parrot. Link to comment
