September in the Garden 2010

This giant squash just keeps on growing. I don't like it because it is the prickeriest squash ever. You need heavy gloves to harvest because the little stickers are all over the outside of the squash. I've let many of them go instead of picking them and they're huge.Apples are looking very nice and very wormy - will be making apple crisp soon. The tomatoes are finally going and I have so many I don't know what to do with them. The Sungolds continue to astound everyone who tastes them.
Still sunflowers - these seeds didn't get going until late in June - the bees love them!

August 2010 - Boating and Hiking

Jim, Gregor, Scott and the scouts went to Zion's National Monument to hike the slot canyons.
Wind and water have formed these amazing mazes in the rock over eons of time. Best trip ever!






Sydney went to the Delta for a week on the cat with Mylaela and the Tzortzis family.

July in the Garden - SUNFLOWERS!!
