Raised Beds Update

It's been awhile...

I realized it when David told me it's been a long time since I blogged.

I didn't think he noticed.

He's right cause when I last blogged about my new raised beds

they looked like this

and now they look like this

but along the way spring turned into summer

 

so I no longer have peas or lettuce or cilantro.



My tomatoes ripened beautifully and I enjoyed them until it became a race to see who would get to them first, me or the birds.

The birds won.

The zinnias that I planned to transplant into my flower garden,

 didn't make it into my flower garden

I liked them right where they were♥ 

My cucumbers in the pot have been plentiful

and even though my zucchini and squash are having a lazy start,

my swiss chard, chili peppers,

kale, thyme, oregano, and basil will be around all summer

and I'm still enjoying lots of beets and carrots.

Now that my time gardening is limited to a couple of hours in the morning (and that's if I get up really early) it's time to start envying those who can garden all summer long. But I won't be stuck indoors in this 110+degree heat. I'll be in here...

"The Lord will guide you always~

He will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land~

You will be like a well-watered garden~

like a spring whose waters never fail."

Isaiah 58:11
