The Weather Is Here, Wish You Were Beautiful

I can't believe how wonderful the weather has been lately...It couldn't be better if I ordered it myself!  It's usually overcast or foggy in the morning, maybe it even rained a little at night, then it clears off about the time I open at 11:00. It's not overly hot, it's not too cool.......it's perfect!  The flowers and vegetables and bees are just loving it. The plants are getting HUGE and are lush and happy.  *SIGH*  ...... happiness.

I weeded in the carrot bed again today.


Finished the whole bed right at closing time. The first planting had came up strong, but something ate alot of the seedlings, so I broadcasted some more seeds today. Two steps forward, one step back...that's what I always say.
