We got one inch of rain over the last two days. Sooooo helpful!! Now unless a storm comes in from the Pacific, this will be the last of our measurable rain for the next few months. This is when my water bill skyrockets!!

.66 inch here. We did need it

all of the herbs are doing great-- the comfrey I chopped down came back, oregano is about to bloom. The bees really love it. there are a fer green tomatoes and Mr. Fig is very happy, there are a lot of figs. at the end of the green beans is chives and jalapenos- they need more heat to get bigger- far back in the grow bags is a yellow squash and an Italian zucchini---to the far left of the herb row is acorn, butternut, regular zucchini, they are doing ok,

not much yesterday other than sweeping most of the driveway (delivery guy tracked gravel and dirt from the road in when bringing in some mulch).

[the rest is in theory until i actually do it :) ]

today will be weeding some gravel areas/pathways. gardens too muddy from rains.

tomorrow mowing.
