Still rumbling...

We had some really bad storm's last night, lot's of thunder and sharp lightning...Around 2am-ish, it sounded like we "may" have gotten some hail, not sure because it was raining so hard and the wind was howling!

Need to go down to the garden this morning and check on it, if we had hail, that could do some serious damage, but I'll keep my fingers crossed it didn't!

The storm is passing over Lake Michigan now, so it looks like we should have sun the remainder of the day. On the bright side, we have had to use little water on the garden to date, Mother Nature has been very gracious!

Here a couple pics of the garden I took a couple days ago...

Shiney things in picture are mosquito's...I counted six in this picture...but trust me, there are many, many more of them lurking around the property!!!

We tried adding pieces of wood between the tomato cages to help support them...

PILE-A-WEEDS!!! Better outside the garden than inside...

Reaping the rewards...

Until later...Peace

  1. Yummmmm! Nothing better than food from the garden. When I use to live in Northern Ohio, I use to wear a bee keepers hat, long sleaves and gloves to go and pick things from the garden. I understand about the mosquitos. I don't envy you at all. Gives me the chills just thinking about it again.

  2. SFG, agreed!! So lucky to have a garden to pick from...We have invested in mosquito nets that go over our hats...I wear mine mostly in the morning so I don't have to spray my face with repellent..and by the way, I thought those were baby calves on your blog...hahaha..Jan told me they were goats...go figure...
