Growing Garden











The garden has been doing very well this year, thanks to perfect weather. We've had a nice mixture of sun and rain. We have already been eating the lettuce and the radishes. It's a start for us--the garden boxes have been so great. I weed a little each morning--it takes less than 5 minutes. Now the ground and the weeding, that is another story--that takes a long time with a hoe, but I planted pumpkins on the ground. Our one watermelon sprout got beat down in a rainstorm and never survived. The next one has sprouted, so we will see. I like getting out in the early morning and taking care of it. Rosie likes to go out, too. A big bird flew low over us yesterday and she ran after it a long time.
