Such a fan-TASTIC day! I got in a whole 45 minutes of uninterrupted weeding WITHOUT the puppies helping! Beau and I got the Sugar Pie Pumpkins planted in the (formerly flooded!) lower garden, as well as two 'Wisconsin Pride' Muskmelon plants. As an ADDED BONUS, I got the monster-sized Sunflowers planted in our Bird Food Plot and then Mr. Wonderful tilled up a section for me to plant all of the Gladiolus corms I bought in an unsupervised trip to Farm & Fleet, and THEN it rained like a sonofagun this afternoon for a good 30 minutes after everything was in the ground. I'm pretty sure that this has been the Best. Day. Ever. in this wet, rainy, cool and UGLY gardening season so far! Bear Chops on the grill, steamed Broccoli from the garden, a garden salad and that yummy Cracker Barrel Hash Brown Casserole for supper. I SO needed a day like today. Faith in Humanity? Restored!
