The Sky Show

A couple of visits this week...and both of them presented quite the show in the sky as the sun set.  This is one of the huge benefits of having our garden in this setting.  We have seen many beautiful sunsets while giving blood to the mosquitoes.  It is all worth it.  We get to spend some evening time working in the garden with the evening bird chorus all around us, and we get the chance to see the sunset show.  Always free, usually well worth a few bites.

Everything continues to grow and produce.  We got a few more squashes, our first daikon, some tomatoes.  The squash plants are getting a little scary, they have grown so large and so healthy.  The tomatoes the same.  It is looking like we will have some very nice onions this year, and the garlic is getting close  to harvest time.  Peppers are forming, pole beans are climbing, chard is being enjoyed by the slugs.  A wonderfully wild and woolly garden experience this year that amazes us each time we visit.  And oh, the sky...
