Weeds, weeds everywhere




It rained a little yesterday. So taking advantage of the damp earth I pulled weeds on the front hill this morning early, before the sun was really up and the heat of the day came upon me. I think I am about 2/3 of the way to the edge of the wall. Who could believe what a lot of work weeds can be. Now all the weeds that I pulled inside the yard are trying to grow back. I have to snatch them up whenever I go by. But, my pumpkins are growing, the giant gourds are beginning to form, there are tomatoes on our plants, and tiny bell peppers on my enormous pepper plant--The plant put all its energy into leaves for the first 4 months of its life. Luckily we have a long growing season. (Unluckily when it comes to weeds.) Oh well.
