Pretty watermelon! We ate the squash and it was good. I planted zucchini, yellow crookneck and lemon squash. I think this one is a cross of zucchini and lemon squash. Fun!

I moved my wheel barrel to this wall because it needed color.

My husband made and painted this trellis. I wished the green would have been a tiny bit brighter. Not crazy about the pot either. But that's all I had. There are 2 clematis in there.

My husband painted this for me. Love the color. He's going to make me a teepee with 1 inch boards that will be green and go to the left of the blue one. Both are for my green beans in the spring and snow peas in the fall.

I know! Didn't think I was going to get a crop out of these, but getting as much as last year...which isn't saying much, I guess, as last year's crop was blight stricken. But, still, feeling blessed to have any at all, so counting my blessings on this.

Garden clean-up began in a serious way this week.
Several hours were spent getting pipes, hoses, and stakes outta the way for the tractor guy. A good start was made getting plants down on the ground.
Since I don't control when he shows up, the steps must be taken to clear a way. Honestly, I hope he isn't asked to come until spring but the old fella is becoming so independent, I'm not sure if the property owner has much control of him anymore.
The owner is talking about getting a tractor of his own but I hardly see how his little hay fields warrant it. Keeping the tractor out of my garden would be one solution but, DW isn't in favor of me doing so much rototiller work. Still, if he shows up in the fall, I have the entire garden to re-do in the spring.

First light frost nite-before-last: Pulled what was left of the zucchini, picked all the Scarlet Runner beans that looked mature even if not dry and picked the red 'maters. The green 'maters I will keep covering at night. I had to leave the two punkin's out there, too big for me to move!
