Thank you for the ping.

On the opposite side of the state the heat is on. I spent the week picking snow peas and snapping them. With the 90 degree + weather the plants won't last for long.

Last Sunday/Monday another deluge of around 4 inches of rain that pounded the freshly tilled beds into a solid mass that only weeds would penetrate. So the sun/heat is appreciated to dry out once again so I can make the beds ready to accept seed. Most of the tomatoes are planted and caged. I have been adding pepper and basil plants to their beds.

My green beans have only sprouted halfheartedly so I will be filling in the empty spots as the beds dry out enough to dig.
