The CNE opened this weekend. The official end of summer. Certainly cooler then normal. No killer heat wave this year. I won’t miss it as long as we get a long late fall. Not a red tomato in sight.

Pulled garlic today!

And a couple of potatoes. And painted the front spindles and rails at Number 14.

Finally got those strawberry thyme blueberries in. Trying to keep them watered. Took forever to get the bag of peat fully wet, that I used to make their bed.

I can find a few grapes. And there is one hazelnut. Had one fully ripe strawberry. The squirrels are taking everything they see. Two cucumbers survived and I had to pick them both while still small.

Beans did great but I didn’t get to them in time. The French bean seeds from last year came up great and I love the slender dark green beans they produce. Delicious.
