It's HOT
And trying to stay cool we were invited to Nadine's and Lynn's for a cook-out. Marg forgot her camera so we don't have any new photos.

We had a good time roasting hot dogs and marshmallows.

The North East Cherry Festival was going on and traffic coming home was terrible. But we finally made it and it's

 STILL HOT.

Supposed to go past 85 today. Marg and Mary and I decided to go see Mary Bennett and then go visit Olive and her family in McKean.  Alex is here from Washington State and so Mary and Alex went swimming while Marg and I went to the farm.

We got diesel for the tractor and were just going to "get it started".  It went errr. errr.
and nothing. Marg called Olive and she had her grandson Cory  to come up and help us. He thought it needed a jump so he pulled it out of the garage with his truck, but it wouldn't start. So he checked the battery terminals and they were RUSTY..)
They got it started.

Well, three hours later it looked a little like this.
There's more to do. So next weekend we plan to take the camper out and camp. And finish cutting it.

We stopped at a farmer's house on the way and asked him to come look at the other stuff we have in the barn.
 We are selling some of it, as we won't ever use it. But not John or the brush hog.
And we are NOT selling the farm.
