Memorial Day

If it weren't for the heat, the lines of cars on the highway, the lines of people at every store, and most things closed, Memorial Day at the beach would be hella-enjoyable. Be that as it may, in the garden at least things are in full swing.

Peaches ripening beautifully

Sweet Potato!
 Time to weed and mulch, which took up most of the day. Now that the blackberries are pretty well spent, out they go. Easier said than done, as they're quite prickly and tenacious.

The garden is filling out nicely with zinnias, sunflowers, tomato plants, the sweet potato, plus a new fig tree and a paw paw tree, which I've always wanted. Also, the catnip seems to be holding in there under the onslaught of cats.
Wait a minute...


Maybe not.
