Tried to play golf this morning, but it started to rain.. Oh no - unwanted things grow when it rains. Weeding is a thankless job. You think they are gone, and then it rains and there they are again! Never-the-less I spent yesterday weeding. It rained last night and this morning. We have lots and lots of zuchinni - some of which "Farmer" Jones thought were cucumbers (of which we now have none), We do have peppers (hot and sweet, multiple colors), tomatoes (first one already harvested), and corn, limas, beans, onions, watermelon, and cantelope plants growing. Radishes are all harvested and still lots in refrig. This morning I planted a few more cucumber seeds - might be too late, but hopefully not. For some reason pictures won't upload today, but maybe tommorrow I can show you the garden.
We also have lots of herbs. They look good even though I cannot possible use them all - basil, rosemary, dill, sage, parsley, oregano, chives, and fennel (I love the licorice smell though don't really use this much). I tried to get some thyme, tarragon, and lavendar to grow but so far no success. I did add parsley and chives to potatoes last night and my omelette this morning..
Later we are going to Abingdon to see Elvis has left the Building at the Barter theater. Good rainy day event!
