This is the third load today. I'm done. Kaput. On strike. Wore out like a rented mule.
Everything is slowly coming along. Peppers are a little slow in developing, as is the tobacco.

Pinging the list.
I just finished getting all my veggies in. Usually we have to wait for Memorial Day but the long range forecast looked good and it worked out well.
Getting that extra two weeks in for the garden is a God send.
It does so much better.
I won’t even TRY to find my name on your ping list.

We bought some soil today for our containers at Home Depot. I met Vince Wilfork (New England Patriots-football) in one of the aisles, and said “hi” to him. What a thrill! Gardening is exciting! :)
North Idaho...
Just got tomato plants in....
Strawberries in for 2 weeks...
Herbs in and growing...
Crossing our fingers...
Spring has finally hit Wisconsin, along with drenching rains. Consequently, the grass is growing like gangbusters. I spent many hours on the mower yesterday, slogging through the front pasture. I might even buy a flower, or two, to plant over the weekend. Perhaps a tomato would be in order.
My garden plot, which lay fallow all last summer because of my surgery, is sprouting al kinds of weeds. But, I noticed that the little trees that I planted from the Arbor society have grown well, despite my neglect, and they need to come out NOW! And one of the lilacs has gotten quite large and it ready to bloom.
Does anyone know when they can be safely transplanted? Do I have to wait until fall?
Not much new to report here, but I may have to brace my pear tree limbs again this year. The tree is loaded with fruit and most are the size of ping pong balls already.
Got a little work done on the deck in between rain showers over the weekend. I was hoping to be finished but the weather didn’t cooperate with me.
The garden is looking good. We’re eating salad greens and radishes, cucumbers are up and needing to be thinned out a bit, tomato plants are starting to bloom and it looks like the potatoes are not far behind.
The horse poo experiment is working well so far. I’ve spent very little time weeding. I hope that trend continues.
