So why did the
very last day of my vacation turn out to have the nicest weather?! It probably reached high-teens to mid-twenties, at least. Grrr.
Despite my wanting to lay around and enjoy the sunshine (my legs need a bit of colour!), I did get some gardening done. Laid down almost all of the soil (only 3 bags left, which I should be okay for) and planted some veggies (and herbs!):
(I sprinkled bits of wood chips from the rabbits so I would know where everything was! ;-)
* carrots - 5 rows (we like our carrots! ;-)
* chives - 1 row
* parsley - 1 row
* tomatos - 3 rows
* beets - 2 rows
* radishes - 1 row (though there are radish seeds in with the cukes - or so the directions of the package suggested...)
* onions - 2 rows
* cucumbers (a small, pickling variety) - 1 long row
I also planted ... (four bulbs) in the shade bed infront of the hostas. The lungwort
appears to be perking up a wee bit (the leaves, anyway). Maybe all is not lost...
Now I just have to cross fingers that everything survives my black-thumb, the weather, the dog and the squirrels!
"...at a certain point in the journey all you can do is laugh."
