Mother's Day, Sprouts - Sunday

in ecoTrain3 years ago

In the morning we found that we were missing some items for our brunch/lunch so I put in the order and then picked it up shortly after 11. Once home and after dropping off the groceries I went out to the gardens to check on how everything is doing. So far about 1/3 of the bean rows have popped, all the squash rows, the spinach, kales, and chards. The squash are going to seriously fill in the garden this year since I put in a LOT of seeds.

The beans are largely just popped out of the soil, these are some of the biggest right now. The pole bean garden is now popping the beans, cucumbers, squash, and sunflowers.

After noon my mom came up for brunch and we sat on the deck in the moderately warm sun. The boys spent much of the afternoon playing and reading. J mostly read and R spent a while in their digging spot by the creek. The hole is nearly 3 feet deep and they have about another foot before they could start hitting the water table. The pit sits about 20 feet from the creek so any water will be filtered and will seep in, not flow in.

For dinner we had leftover steak and I cooked up shrimp on the fire pit to go with. It was supposed to be frosty this morning and over night but the temps never hit freezing. Tonight is the last night of possible cold then it will warm back up and the garden should really take off.

Today R has school, tonight I have a co-op board meeting, I should get the weed eater out and cut through some of the rapidly growing grass, and I get my tail lights for the bikes today so the boys and I can go on another ride this week.
