I spent most of the day outside since the rain has ended. I mowed and trimmed the lawn. That looks much better than it did this morning.
The garden also looks better, but is it certainly nothing to brag about this year. I am in the process of weeding it for the first time this year. It just didn't get done before.
But the weeds are not the only problem. When I bought seeds, I got the wrong kind of beans. Oh well, I planted them anyway. They came up kind of spotty, and then the rabbits ate them off. They are beginning to grow back--the few stalks that are there.
The other major issue in the garden is the potatoes. I planted my usual two rows of potatoes, but only about six plants ever came up. I guess we will be buying potatoes all winter this year.
So it is kind of a disappointing garden report this week. The healthiest plants in the garden are the peas which should be ready to pick in about two weeks.

What's with the gardens this year? Our potatoes came up kind of spotty too, only about a dozen stalks of corn came up in the two rows we planted and not a one bean. We replanted last evening.
