I have one empty pot sitting out on the walk.  I’m trying to figure out what sort of vegetable I’d like to put in it.  Sure, I could do flowers but I so love fresh veggies.  Maybe I’ll pick up some beet seeds and try them in the pot.  I used to grow them in my garden when I had a huge veggie garden.  We’ll see.

     After the rains, we had yesterday and last night, all the veggies, whether in pots or by the back fence, have doubled in size.  I found it rather surprising since I’ve watered them every day.  Unfortunately, two of the patty-pan squash blossoms fell off…Sigh. 

     The southern flow of high heat and humidity has worn DH down to a nub.  He’s barely functioning after he goes outside.  The air conditioners are on and running for him.  Heck, even the dogs are happier inside.  They’ve become air-conditioned couch potatoes already. 

     We are both looking forward to the cooler temperatures and lower humidity heading our way from the north.  It will be nice to be able to weed the gardens without having to take a million water breaks.
