New tires are a good thing and you can never have too much fish in the freezer. lol

The Sea Foam worked its magic in the tiller engine. It fired right up for me yesterday evening. I took it out to the garden patch and ran over the weeds and grass that are trying to undo all of my good work.

Cucumbers are up about 6” tall. Tomatoes aren’t happy with all of the rain lately but they don’t look terrible. Rhubarb plants have recovered from the transplant shock and are sending up new growth.

Weather guessers are calling for scattered showers tonight and through the weekend. I need to get sweet corn and pole bean seeds into the ground. I should do that after work today but I’m thinking I’d rather go to the sprint car races and leave the planting for tomorrow.

I am being completely lackadaisical with my planting this season, though Mom is coming out next week to kick me in the butt, LOL!

She will NOT be happy with me if I don’t have tomatoes and fresh flowers for her to raid mid-to-late Summer. ;)

The constant RAIN has really slowed things down around here. It is a real de-motivator!
