This morning fog / smoke possibly no smell. There was a little yesterday on and off but his week overall little to not even noticeable. Loggers are busy again this week and saw 1 farm machine pass by. Construction vehicles were low and HVAC here as I think they are in Menasha after Monday's F-3/ F-4 tornado. That missed my sister's & my Mom's house each by 1.5 miles! Went right in between them. Other than loggers, just local home owner traffic cars and trucks going about their business now that that smell is gone and smoke high in the air. Not many boats towed this week-----Plants are doing well despite the lack of rain early this week but the grass is greening up pretty quickly with this 2 days of some rain. Onion plants are on the verge of blooming. Some daisies are still flourishing and black eyed susans are as well in yellow, orange and pink. The Red maple I have is 30% red leafed. Deer have been clinging to the shoreline with a lot of fawns keeping cool and yesterday a pair of nicely velveted and large racked bucks were scoping out my back yard. They also discovered my neighbor's apple tree and this morning a doe with her 2 fawns were investigating something by other neighbor's shed. All of the deer I saw this week were healthy looking ----- That's all I have. Enjoy your weekend.
