Practically Pioneers...

Richard's garden is coming along quite nicely. He has worked so hard to get the garden in. With all the rain we had during the first three weeks of June (We didn't see the sun for three weeks) it took multiple weeks to finally get the garden in and get the wildlife and bugs off our plants. Richard worked tirelessly to build a fence that will keep the deer, rabbits and other critters out. In the process we were caught under a number of drenching rain clouds that decided to dump all the rain they had on us a few nights in a row. But alas, everything seems to be growing (I had to plant to peas twice to get them to grow though). It's going to be a late crop , but at least there's going to be a crop, and a good one at that.



On days it doesn't rain Richard drives the jeep up to the garden and waters it using water he puts in our cooler. So far, between mother nature and his trips in the jeep our plants are growing.
