Time Marches On

Time just keeps marching on and I have no idea where it's all gone. Summer is half over already. The Firemen's Picnics are going full strength and it's time to submit my entry form for the Harford Fair. Other than our peppers our veggie garden seems to be doing well. We've been picking yellow squash like crazy (even though we only have two plants) and hopefully we'll start picking cucumbers some time this week. We also have a couple of fair sized eggplants to be picked soon. The tomato plants are loaded with green tomatoes but they aren't even close to being ripe. Because of the heat and then the rains I haven't been out to the wild huckleberries lately to see if we'll have any this year. I doubt that we will have enough to do anything with since the late frost killed the blossoms and the same for apples. However, the elderberries are a later blooming plant and we should have plenty of them to pick.
