  The garden is growing , everything looks good, we had  fresh lettuce greens for a  salad tonight , very tasty.  I planted 6 asparagus , 2 sage plants, and marigolds, all from Lorri.  These  plants  look wonderful, very healthy.   We had 1.5 inches of rain this  week,so a few days without rain would be nice.  I would guess that the beans will be the next thing that I will get to harvest, then the carrots.  Although I can't wait to taste sweet corn and tomatoes and little new potatoes. 

I peaked in the Blue Bird house  last week and there  were 3-4 little blue birds, it was hard to tell as  they were packed in.  Today I checked  when we got home and they have fledged.  I hope that there will be another  brood this summer. 

Slowly we are getting come control of this yard, but it will be  a  work in progress for  a long time. There is always  something that needs to be mowed, or cut down, weeded or hauled away. But it is giving us things to do.

  1. Thank heavens for things to do. Your garden is looking wonderful. Glad you got the plants in the ground. We had rain this week too but Sunday should be dry enough to do some more planting. That is my hope anyway.
