Wow ... My garden is a handful of raised beds. lol I've neglected it,
too, because it just got so hot.

yeah, it gets hot here too at times, i just try to
get out in the morning while it is still cool enough
and work until it gets too hot. lately that has been
right about noon. today i was able to get out again
later on as the breeze kicked up and there were some
clouds. nice day when i can get two shifts in.


I'm thinking next year I'm not going to do as much as I did this year.
The husband always starts out like gangbusters wanting to plant
everything under the sun, but then he doesn't follow through with taking
care of what he planted.

i know that feeling... i expect i'll be done
with the current garden project in another week or
two depending upon the weather. then i'll redo my
other strawberry patch (which i hope will take only
a few days) and then get out to another big project
out back which should take another month at the rate
things are going. and that will also mean it will
be getting cooler out. i can get a lot more done
then...

it's good exercise for me so i'm fine with all of
it.


We also get over run with bushes and cane that keeps coming in from the
neighbors yard behind us. I have plenty of dried cane poles every year,
though!

i would get a good barrier dug in down deep to
block that stuff. i have some pretty invasive
grasses that do the same thing. a lot of work to
keep them from getting worse.
