we don't have a drought at the present time but we went about three weeks without much rain before we got a few cm recently. there is rain forecast for most of the next four days so we'll see how that goes. i have pea sprouts up and perhaps some beans will appear soon.

a tree froggy came to visit the last time we had a decent rain overnight when I was staying up late reading - they like to get the bugs off the windows.  it is past season for the crocuses but i did get a few pictures of them that i liked.  in this one you can see the rabbits or deer chewed on the plant and just nipped the top of the flower.  the past few years i've not been able to get a decent lilac picture and this year it almost happened again, but i'd gone out a week before all the blooms were open and tried to get one that worked. i went back out a week later and all the blooms were spotted or damaged.  i have gotten most of the starts planted for onions, tomatoes, and peppers. the peas, beans and onions that were already planted are doing well. squash planting is next for tomorrow morning. after that it is all bean planting in any empty spaces and a few melon plants. |

gardens planted and doing mostly ok. one garden i planted outside the fences ended up being heavily grazed the past few nights so not much left in there of the many bean sprouts that were just coming up. not sure if i will replant or not.
projects will keep me busy for a few weeks and the usual weeding and watering.
