Is Condition Monitoring Report: True
Description: This report is for the week of 20-26 June 2016. This is going to be another easy report. We had no recorded rainfall for the week. It was hot and humid for most of the week. After having 2+ inches the week before, it was good to dry out. I am taking part in CoCoRaHS soil moisture measuring program. What surprised me was when I did the Master Gardener Field Test to estimate Soil Type on Friday was how moist the soil was both at the surface and 7 inches below. The sandy loam soil actually formed a ball without adding any water. The best thing that happened this week was the male Painted Bunting was sitting on the rain gauge singing his heart out two mornings running.
