Sun, Sun Mr. Golden Sun

This is more like it. A whole 2 weeks of sun with just an occasional shower.

I've had 2 green peppers - and very nice they were. A couple of these no-yet-ready hot ones made there way into a chicken curry. Wicked.

A second crop of leaf lettuce.

Mountain Orach and Arrowhead lettuce have done well in the cool wet weather and provided a continuous crop.

Maybe a squash later....

And glorious tomatoes. One or two coming in each day. Nothing taste like a fresh heritage tomato straight from the vine. Ah! worth it.

Surprise - More Rain and local Tornado

Just in case I might need to fill the container I made up this device. The top end is an $11 hose attachment with the watering rose cut off. Some scrap 1/2" pipe was held in place with caulking.

Torrential rains and a tornado nearby.....

We had the wettest August since 1963 with twice the usual rainfall.

What more to say.
