Recent rains cooled things off and things are mostly improving in Taylor, Texas. Temperatures are refreshingly back to regular late summer hot! The rain seemed to revitalize things in Julie's yard--new growth and a return of old pests--cactus bugs and fire ants. These and other grievances seemingly vaporized with the return of the oxblood lilies, leaving Julie elated and borderline delirious.

It's been a little more than 2 years on the air at KBSR for Plow & Hose & this episode marks the 100th radio show! Send Julie an email at [email protected] and she'll put your name in for a drawing for a prize--three names will be drawn on Sunday Sept. 11th. Yay!
