sweet, it's raining now. it looks like it will be raining a while and just enough to keep soaking in and not running off too much. we really can use exactly this kind of rain instead of those heavy downpours that we've been getting.

got out to mow today which started by me digging a hole and burying some food scraps and also while i was there i weeded around that hole to make sure it had plenty of goodies in there for the worms to enjoy.

weather was perfect.

the fenced gardens are weeded at last. about six weeks later than normal...

now gotta get back to outside the fence a few gardens can use more weeding. at least i did get the big garden along the pathway mostly weeded a few weeks ago so it just needs some cleaning up in a few spots now and then i can get to the north garden which is the worst since i've not spent that much time there since last fall other than removing some of the worst weeds i've seen as they've come up. it will probably take me a week or two to get that all done and then it will be time to do some tomato canning and then the dry bean harvest will kick in. oh and somewhere i gotta get the garlic out and the peppers and some beans picked. watering tomorrow also gotta get done. good thing my todo list is never empty. my todo list right now has "Take nap." at the top.

Took a break from mowing and weeded the pepper bed. Might still be able to save them. The heat and overabundance of rain really has them stressed. Two are returning to a vibrant green
