Gardening

Just in case I haven't mentioned it enough,  the weather has been so cold, rainy, windy all spring and summer.  The crops are behind schedule and so are my plants.  It is beyond ridiculous.
I have had a goal of having a ripe tomato by July 4th.  Some years I make it, others I don't.  This year will be a definite don't!

At least the cherry tomatoes are surviving.

My new lawn is coming in little by little.


The safflower is coming up now.

And we are growing a nice crop of foxtails.

I have had the peas planted since April.  I planted two rows from the seed I bought last year and one row from dad's mystery seed (I don't know when he bought it).  The only row that is doing well at all is the one I planted using dad's pea seeds.
And the roses that came from Grandma Blanche's actually survived my transplanting and the winter and are going to bloom!

Magpies

 The dang magpies are eating more cat food than the cat(s).
