Well, we planted a head lettuce this year and...

...never again... They all came in together and now we have 20-some heads of lettuce on our hands and with the heat a'comin' that mean eat it all fast or watch it go to seed... Oh well, could be worse...

Did get my first beat tops last night for supper... Yummy... Hate the beats but love their greenish purple leaves...

The Acme Tree Company and the Acme Fence Company (i.e. my construction crew) will be tackling the deer fence project today... We've got at least 5 more poles to set down in the woods where the decent hardwoods aren't close enough for spanning the fence... Plus we have 4 dead trees hung in live ones that we're going to have to pull out with the tractor and a couple more dead 'un's that need to come down now before the fence is up...

My band had rehefrsal yesterday and the harp player's girlfriend saw how well our loropetulum are doing on one of our fences... Just so happens that the P-Vine has several at the garden center that need homes... So she left us a check for 4 of them!!! That's a good thing...

Well, gotta go...
