Busy weekend

We had a weekend with NO rain! The garden dried out enough to work it again. After having to replant the corn we were getting a bit disappointed to see such poor germination. I told my husband I thought the seed might have been exposed with the rain and the birds then ate them. Other crops are coming on strong onions, potatoes, sweet potatoes, carrots, raddishes, beets, peas, cucumbers and zucchini are all up and growing well.
  We finally managed to get the tomato and pepper plants out this weekend with the help of our grandson (5yr old).
  Next project was tearing out old landscape fabric, preping the soil and planting pumpkins, watermelons and cantaloupe.
  Next project cutting, splitting and stacking the wood from the tree limb that came down in a recent storm. Did I mention the tree that almost broke in half about 15 feet off the ground? That was fun! We cut at it a little pushed it with the tractor, cut a little more, pushed again you kinda get the idea. Finally got it disconnected with no human injuries but alas it was wedged in another tree and sticking up in the air! Kubota to the rescue (again). We hooked a chain to that sucker and pulled................ hoping not to get a slingshot effect and decapitation anyone ( insert husband here). The plan worked like a charm so now we have more wood to split and stack..... That's Ok though.
 Next project fix the driveway. Big ruts from all the rain means tractor time for me. I get to do the driveway repairs and enjoy doing it.
  Next project ...... uhoh...... they decided to get the tent out.
   and light the pile of wood that has been accumulating since last summer...... BONFIRE! It was a fun way to end a long couple of days.

 One final note for now we also moved the baby geese (actually all of the geese) to a pasture further away from the garden, ya see THEY were trimming the corn as it was coming up! Didn't ruin the plants but they aren't being tempted anymore!

         There's always something!
