One Week’s Difference

What a difference one week can make!  Our garden is loving the current weather trend.  We have been having really muggy, humid and warm days with scattered thunderstorms daily. All the plants are thriving but the zucchini plant has really outdone itself.

This is our zucchini plant on May 25th.

This is the same plant on June 3rd.

Lucy and I were out for our daily walk on Saturday.  The clouds were very impressive.

Overachievers

One of our pepper plants decided it was time to produce a pepper.

Our cherry tomato plant has several little green tomatoes on it.  Can’t wait for them to ripen so I can eat them!

Wild Daisies

Green Friend

I was wondering if our little green friend was going to show up this year.  He decided hanging out on the grill was the safest place to be to catch bugs.

Bed Head

His mane looks about as jacked up as my hair does when I get out of bed in the morning 😉

Every day when Lucy and I go for our walk we see, but mostly hear, these little birds.  They relentlessly sing their songs, possibly in hopes of getting a female to take notice of them.  Or maybe they are just happy to be alive.  Maybe both.

Tadpoles

You know the tadpoles are huge when you are standing on a bridge looking over into the murky water about 20 feet below and can see them.

A Note From Abroad

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sailaway from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” ~ Mark Twain
