We are having some gorgeous weather

We are having some very fine weather now: occasional rain showers, plenty of sun, not too hot.  The garden is responding very nicely.  Everything is green and lush.

We had some of our Chard this week.  Nothing like fresh from the garden.

The Beans are climbing and I expect we will see blossoms very soon.

The Tomatoes have gone wild.  We aren't really staking them this year and the plants have been unbelievably vigorous.  Not many tomatoes yet.

The Squashes are doing much better now and we have been getting a slow, steady stream of yellow and green squashes to add to our menus at home.  The Patty Pans are mostly being eaten by some small toothed being.  Not sure who the culprit is, but if the Patty Pans continue to serve as a decoy and the other squashes are left untouched (as has been the case so far), we can accept that sacrifice.

The evening's bounty.

And part of the garlic harvest.

We were treated to a fly over by some Canada Geese.  Always fun to see.

Just a lovely picture on a lovely evening.
