now i know why the street light looked so dim, the only reason i noticed was during a middle of the night wake up call, usually the bathroom is well lit from it. forgot all about till i was watering this morning and looked up at the pole...well how about that duke power come out in the last 2 weeks and changed it out to a led street light...

going to miss that metal halide one it lit up the majority of the property and the road....wonder if the evil next door neighbors called..?
 
Sure wish I was there to have a slice of that melon. Looks good! Certainly never got that size for me. Maybe I should try again with black plastic mulch to heat things up.
 
I was wondering if the round small watermelon have any flavor. Because I am 1 person I buy them instead of full size, no matter how red very bland tasting. I watched a video on picking rip watermelon at market. It said look for the stop +fruit touch earth the yellower the better. How do you pick rip melon ?
