Well, that's it for me... No more mulch snacks at night!!!
Nevermind...
Well, well, well...
Seems that all we do these days is pick stuff... The black raspberries are only a few days from giving out but the red ones are coming it... With the good rains we have had we've had a bumper crop of berries... And the cherry trees up on Lewis Jenkins far4m are so full of cherrys that the things could very easily collapse under the weight of them so Lewis is letting anyone pick who wants to...
We're freezing alot of berries for next winter... The cherrys will end up in a couple of pies... My back hurts from pittin' 'um... I'd much rather pick than pit...
Veggie garden is gonna be a tad late becuase of the cool May we had... The ground didn't get up to 55 degrees until almost the first of June so tomatoes, cukes, eggplant, beans, etc. will be a couple weeks late... But the spinach wat that weather up... Lettuce is giving out...
We're having the annual "cutting exchange" for the Northeern Va. Azalea Society here at our place in a couple weeks so every day is weeding and mulching trying to be ready for it... The P-Vine had me demolish an old board fence between the driveway and the house... After it was gone things didn't look quite right so I've spent the last 3 days taking the tractor back in the woods, loading big rocks and dragging them out and have just purdy much completed an 80 long stone wall... Still doesn't do what the old fence did but it is a step in right direction... Plus, the area where I've been getting the rocks has needed a little clean up so between the front bucket (with tooth bar) and a rear 3 pt. hitch York rake It's lookin' purdy spiffy...
Well, back at it... It's 94 degrees so I'm taking a short break every couple hours...
