On Memorial Day we had a long day working out in the yard. It started early in the morning so that we could get sprinklers in for a grass area that we are adding around the shed. I wore a cheap cowboy hat that I bought at a gas station, and that proved to be very helpful as it was in the upper 80's all day long. My goal was to have all of this done by Tuesday, the first day of the summer semester. I got very close to finishing it, I got all the trenches dug, the pipes laid, and now I just have 3 of the 6 sprinklers left to finish the project!
This picture is of the three rows of corn that Julie planted. We decided to plant the corn a couple rows at a time so that we don't have so much corn all at once. Last year we were eating corn for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Julie planted four rows of Tendergreen Beans in this area. You will also notice that we have peppers and tomatoes to the left of the beans. Since we have been doing the sprinkler project, we haven't been stellar at watering, so they are looking a little wilted.
The peas are really starting to get heavy, as you can see they are pulling down the trellis. The interesting thing is that the row without the trellis is creeping over so that it can attach itself. It's weird how plants adapt to their environment.
