happy duck goes to the garden

Yay broccoli!

Yay carrots!
Yay potatoes in buckets!


It has been cool this summer, I over heard our local weather expert saying that it's above average everywhere but here.  No really, he is an expert not just another guy complaining about the weather like the rest of us are.  Cool for humans means winter crops are doing great!  Usually plants bolt early here because the days are so long, I have never made spinach last for more than a few weeks.  

We did have 3 days of crazy mad summer where we went from record lows to record highs in 24 hours.  Kind of mind bending when you look at this year of record snowfall, record rain, record cool, record hot.  No wonder as my good friend (EMT, nurse, married to doctor, all around saint) says "this town is crazy" and she say any thing more due to hippa rules.
