APple cucumbers are just starting to pick up...
.putting up 2 new fences on each side of the house to keep Bear (dog) in the back yard. He has a bad habit of chasing people walking dogs, and the horses along the fence line . that will put a halt to him LOL

Foxy Lady: Know what you mean by crazy weather. We had a drought recently which is unheard of, they said we'ed have power cuts because there wasn't enough water in the hydro dams and now all we get is rain and more rain.

Foxy Lady:  Well.. our fall garden didn't make it.. only the Sunflowers.. I figured where it set wasn't good.

Our corn though is a good 3' high, our Tom Plants are awesome.. big, and strong and blooming.. our lettuces, cabbage, and spinach are all doing well.. and all the peppers seem to be getting strong and ready.. No complaints here.. Will take some photos in another month when everything is producing..
