I have been trying to spend a bit of time in the garden every day.

But sometimes it is raining so hard that the mud tries to suck me under.  Or paper work gets in the way.  Or my body says only a few minutes can be spent working this way.

I am finding time to pull up the weeds that are coming up around the tomato plants.  

I just make sure I do not pull up the flowers.  I have never grown larkspur before and I am enjoying the blues and purples.

Most of the lettuce has bolted, but not all.  The chard and kale are still good.  The squash are trying to set plants.

And we got the first eggplant, a green tomato, and a almost rip tomato today.  We will soon have many tomatoes because at least one bush is larger then I am.  

My garden is always an adventure, even if it is just for a few minutes a day.
