Greetings from southern New Hampshire!

Barb made us soft tacos last evening, using our first tomato…courtesy of our Planta Sungrow 26 greenhouse.

Yesterday, I moved the north fencing from the garden and wrapped it around the new boundary. We now have 5 new 10’ by 4’ raised beds that are mostly planted with vegetables started in the above-mentioned greenhouse.

Today, I will install the clips holding the fencing to the t-posts, and extend the irrigation line to the new bed.

We had a slight bump in our projects as Suzy, one of our cats, passed over the Rainbow Bridge last Sunday. I made her a box, lined with red flannel and laid out a new flower bed to serve as her grave site. She is now at rest and I have the stones set aside to build the flower bed. We will include pussy willow and other annual and perennials to decorate and memorialize her. She would have been 18 in 2 months.

Well, back to work!

So sorry for your loss. 18 years is a long time to have a pet - lots of fond memories, I’m sure. :)

A good life. We just lost Oscar at 17 and 6 months. She was my hunting buddy at the farm. She would follow me to the tree stand and go up with me.
