Already August
I don't know where the summer has gone, we are in the dog days of August now. It has been a cool summer until this weekend, it was in the 90's on Saturday and very humid. Today is cooler but still in the high 80's. The pictures are of tomato worms that were on our plants. these 2 are dead now, but we will have to keep checking.
Our garden is producing lots now. The tomatoes are getting ripe, we have been eating and giving away beets, lettuce, zucchini, summer squash, tomatoes, eggplant and snow peas. we have only cucumber plant that survived, so not too many cukes.
H takes care of the garden, as I am working this summer in Home Health. Just 2 to 3 days a week. I am glad I decided to do it and that there was a job available at the right time.
My sister and her husband have been helping us with mowing Mom's yard this summer, they also have spent lots of time cleaning out and organizing Mom's possessions. Family has taken most things, especially items that will help them remember Mom and Dad and growing up on the farm.
Another 2 months and we will be back on the road, we have some things to do to Moose before we leave, but are waiting for cooler weather.
