Half of garden with tomato "greenhouse"Since the garden is in I can now concentrate on small putsy projects around the yard. I finished planting my container pots on Saturday, put in some moss roses by my Japanese pagoda, finished the landscaping off the side/front of the porch (big HOORAY!, washed out Ben's pool, put up the kennel shade, watered the compost piles and added some enzymes to help with composting, watered everything and measured out my next landscaping project - a retaining wall along side the garage. I have the rocks, I just need to start digging the trench.
Finished landscaping!So now it's just a matter of keeping up with the mowing, working on the projects and watering!

I am SO jealous. My next yard will definitely be situated so I can have a vegetable garden!
For now I have to make do with one garden pot of mixed herbs and a pot with Steve's bhut jaloki pepper.
Steve promised me a greenhouse at our "retirement" house. I'm holding him to it.
Good luck with all your veggies. Can't wait to see what you cook up!
