Hope you all had an enjoyable Father’s Day weekend. Our weather for the week was pretty nice and we did get some much needed rain. Made the grass shoot right up and helped with the gardens and flower beds. May need a little more slow, steady rain to help too. Last I heard, we are to have rain a few days this week, but we’ll see if that does happen. We are always blessed with the wind and we had quite a lot of that. Very gusty at times.
Are birds going to be bothering your tomatoes when they are ripening? Hang a few red Christmas balls on your plants. They peck at the red ball and leave the green tomatoes alone. They get tired of that so just leave. Hope this is true.

Gerry and Paula Weslowski, Allentown, like Lopez and were here for another good weekend with daughter, Nina Weslowski and Brian McGuire. Got to spent time with her Dad on Father’s Day.
Thank you to Jason Brumwell, Bill Stasiak, Bob McGuire and Brian McGuire for their help and work on getting the Lopez Cold Spring trough a face lift and back in place. Sure looks nice. Thanks to all who have donated to get this project done. It’s very much appreciated. We’ve had so many people tell us they’ve used that water for many years.

I know there are things that will be coming up now that the summer will be in full swing. Keep an eye on the Sully and Face Book to find out when, where and what will be going on. Something of interest to everyone.
