Oh yeah - weather is nice.
My age is starting to catch up with me, but when things turn this nice outside, I can't stay inside. You'd think I'd know better, but I feel compelled to make work for myself that will demand my attention through winter and into spring. My favorite time to garden.
Anyone else?
This summer we had 42 days 90 degrees or above, and for the first time in my life we grew watermelons - about half a dozen big sweet Charleston Grays. Simply amazing!
Also, for the last couple years, when real frost turns the Halloween pumpkins to mush I've just scooped them up and slid them out at the edge of the "garden." This year a white punkin grew the most amazing vines - probably 50 feet wide with a couple dozen punkins, We also had a bumber crop of dozens and dozens of Cayenne pepoers.
It's finally turned cold, so I have to harvest everything, but I built a little greenhouse and I'm going to try and grow a little winter garden of greens and such.
