I thought Linda had successfully eliminated them from the planet several weeks ago with her strategic and abundant placement of powerful powders and sprays in and around the house..but obviously they\u2019ve grown immune to the poison. These things plus cicadas making so much noise that it\u2019s hard to carry on a conversation outside and, you might say, I\u2019m ready for a good hard freeze to bring this odd soggy summer to a conclusion. But the hot wet conditions have been great for one thing: Linda\u2019s patio plants absolutely love it and have exploded into great balls of color.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_629\" style=\"width: 598px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-629\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-629\" title=\"Buddha flowers 001\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.keloland.com\/lund\/files\/2010\/08\/Buddha-flowers-001.jpg\" alt=\"Linda's impatients on steroids\" width=\"588\" height=\"392\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-629\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Linda&#39;s impatiens on steroids<\/p><\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-630\" title=\"Buddha flowers 005\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.keloland.com\/lund\/files\/2010\/08\/Buddha-flowers-005.jpg\" alt=\"Buddha flowers 005\" width=\"588\" height=\"349\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0No doubt you noticed that there\u2019s a guy with a video camera taking pictures of me taking pictures. Well, that\u2019s veteran Keloland Photographer, Terry Kjergaard..better known as Buddha. He and reporter\/anchor, Jon Wilson, were out to see me this week for a story Jon\u2019s doing about what old anchormen do after retirement. In my case, blogging on the Keloland web site.<\/p>\n<p>After years and years of interviewing people myself, it was very odd having a reporter stick a microphone in my own face and, just like those people I used to complain about, I wound up rambling on and on saying nothing terribly profound. \u00a0When Buddha asked Jon if he\u2019d grab another camera battery, I realized it was time to get to the point and and wrap this thing up.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, I have no idea if and when Jon\u2019s \u201cEye on Keloland\u201d story will be on the air but he sure has his work cut out for him.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_631\" style=\"width: 598px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-631\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-631\" title=\"Buddha flowers 008\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.keloland.com\/lund\/files\/2010\/08\/Buddha-flowers-008.jpg\" alt=\"Jon and Buddha on assignment at my house.\" width=\"588\" height=\"373\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-631\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Jon and Buddha on assignment at my house.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Speaking of Keloland..I am about to begin a brand new and exciting venture with my favorite TV station.
