Been an interesting few days…I have TWO tomatoes growing on one of my vines…woohoo!!! some things have not done well – cauliflower, broccoli, brussel sprouts…it’s just been so very wet I think that might be the problem…my potatoes in a broken five gallon can are growing like crazy!! will be fun to see what results I have in several more months…
humidity has been awful, making me ready to head for the hills…but actually getting ready for a quick run out to Columbia, MO this weekend to watch my 20 yr old granddaughter graduate from the U of MO…she buckled down and completed her degree in just three years…so proud of her determination….she just didn’t want the debt other students are mindlessly (she thinks) incurring. I’m so glad folks are finally beginning to rethink the importance of “higher education.” It simply isn’t for everyone. As I spent a chunk of my life working with students coming out of our public schools who were ill prepared for college level work , I think I can speak with some authority.
I’m doing a bit of research on water storage. I want to add several rain barrels for watering my raised bed gardens. I’m on a water system here but the rates keep going up and up. And, I think fresh rain water will be better for my gardening efforts than treated city water…maybe not…
Sure hoping all ya’ll can stay well and enjoy the days you’ve been given on this green earth…:) love your posts!!!
