making on Monday

  The gardens are nearly all planted; there's just the cucumbers, okra and corn to put in.  There is lettuce nearly ready to harvest and lots of things coming up which will provide us with good veggies in the future.
  The fruit trees that still survive have set on fruits; luckily not as many as last year, with the exception of the prune-plum, I think it bloomed itself out last year and has to re-coup this year.  But there are pie cherries, pears on both trees, and yellow plums babies on the trees.
  I've put flowers out in the pots in front and planted a couple of new perennials and 2 new iris in the back.  
  I still have to get the greenhouse up and the two new garden beds, but they will be ready for next year before summer is over.  
  We have contracted for the concrete work and it will be done before summer is over also.  It will be nice not to have that mud all over out there; happy, happy face here.


It's memorial day here in the US, a day to honor all of our fallen soldiers.  We thank them again for their service to our country and for some of them the ultimate sacrifice.
