Charlie and I are continuing to work on the garden and are really enjoying it. His imagination is really in gear and I am along for the ride and fresh produce of course. We've picked lettuce, parsley and some of his mother's basil. She has a raised bed going as well. We have two tomatoes about the size of marbles and the corn is knee high. A few years ago, we were in Minnesota during the summer and their saying was that they wanted their corn to be "Knee high by the 4th of July". We measured this morning and found ours is knee high (even by Charlie's knees) so I guess our goal should be "Knee high by Memorial Day" -
doesn't rhyme though.
Oh, well.
Rain, rain, rain - I'm not complaining and neither are the mosquitoes! It has been wonderful to get it. I just hope we'll have more during the summer. It is certainly helping our water bill and the plants. Here is a photo update of where we are now with the garden..........
The garden........... original milking barn in background.

Tomatoes - five varieties from yellow to red
Snow peas in some sort of device used at the dairy that was on our land.
Charlie's found rocks from a well for use in a future project. Right now I am hoping wave petunias will grow over them.
