First a lovely photo of Sueko taken a week ago. She came to dinner on a hot evening. It's a way I can set the table and do the dishes, instead of leaving them all with her. She liked it. Tonight she'll visit Mgt and Renner's house for the first time.
It's almost the end of Ben's visit and we've had great fun. We've been to a pond almost every day, Dyer and Great. He doesn't need more oceans with homes in Cali and NC.
I had planned to plant hydrangeas in the bin but the sun wasn't right. He wanted blueberries and so we planted blueberries. He did the heavy lifting because my back has been iffy.
Brady has been here a week. Even though all three dogs were soaked by the hose, he likes to drink from it.
We've been eating from the garden. We are about done with the lettuce. The green beans are here, and I have a colander full. Some bad animal ate most of the sugar snap pea vines. Damn.We've eaten jalapeno peppers, as they mature they get hotter. Zucchini has been a hit, I've made sure to pick them when they are small. We aren't tired of them yet. I did plant a new rhubarb, the old one was attacked by cut worms. This one has a nice safe and deep collar on it.
I am waiting for the perfect ripe tomato.
Rose is at a music festival in New York State. It must be awfully hot. http://www.campbisco.net/artists.html
I've done no knitting to speak of and was "off" due to the all star break. I even read a few books. No Red Sox, no knitting.
That's about all for now. CB
