I had some help in the orchard today

I had some help in the orchard today. It was a fellow whose wife is spending the weekend with "the girls".

I had him lugging buckets of water in the orchard and moving the trickle-buckets. He was talkative.

I learned that "Sitting is the new Smoking". He also shared that his wife was enchanted with the idea of Enneagrams, a method of categorizing personalities.

We watered about 24 trees and I will finish the job tomorrow. Most of the time was spent in the shade waiting for the water tubs to fill.

As we were knocking off due to the heat, this is what came over the horizon

The Hill Orchard in the foreground.

I don't expect it to hit the orchard. It is a fairly narrow pop-up T-storm.
