Been planting the veggie garden today. At least the cold weather plants. Carrots, beets. radishes and peas. Decided to pass on lettuce, spinach and broccoli this year to make room for other things.
My eyes are stinging from sweat. Time for a shower and the first buzz of the day.

I need a shower, too. Dragged 5 huge bird cages outside and pressure washed 'em 'til they looked new again. I'm tired. Gonna make some onion rings, stuff my face, shove a bubble pipe in it, and head for the shower.
Damn near pulled the cover off the Rolls for a short trip down the road, but got lazy and said fork it. Supposed to rain tomorrow, and Tuesday is supposed to have a high of 62. People in Michigan wonder why they get sick? We never get a chance to acclimate.

Hopper look at the low temp next Friday night. That is at the Airport 50 miles and 1,000 ft below me. You can get frost here in the high 30's.......will probably be in the mid 30's here.
Time to bring in those tomatoes
And do not forget your little comfy azz pillow to sit on. Wake Up Boo
You can get a nice pillow from GMO. I heard he has connections

Good morning
we got about 24 tomato and jalapeños plants watermelons in the ground and will try and get corn and cukes in the ground today
then we will finish filling up a couple more raised beds in Swedes garden
then we will be ordering a dump truck load of gravel for the driveway and then we will make rock paths all around the raised beds , might as well grow stones cause it is difficult to grow grass out here unless one has a well tapped into the Oglala aquifer
did I say we get about 8-10 inches of rain in a year?

With no rain you might consider a rock garden. They don't grow all that fast, but they last a long time......................

just like the poor old dirt farmer who lost all his corn so he now grows tons and rolls them on down to the taxman in town
cant grow no corn ain’t got a loan
Those little beds are great. I have 2. One is full of peppers which is doing great already. Last year, this little bed supplied us with peppers all summer for us our neighbors and family. Love the look all summer long and it’s the last thing that dies so they look really nice growing on the side of my house. The other I filled with the eggplants I started inside. Unfortunately the rabbits took most of them out. I have more started inside now as we love them so much. I plan to put a little 1-1/2 foot fence around them to keep the honest rabbits honest. Swedes garden is going to be nice
Not sure what you mean What is GMO ?You can get a nice pillow from GMO. I heard he has connections
