weed picture! I used the long handled lopping shears and cut 7 wagon loads for the sheep. Plus a dozen too big to go on the wagon. I wanted to clear down the remaining side of the tomato trellis, bu didn’t make it to the end. Got too hot, drenched in sweat, came in and took a shower. I took a selfie of me standing in front of the weeds. That’s me, down at the bottom! LOL BTW, I’m 5’7”.

Onions! Hubby ate two (not pictured) with breakfast. He said they tasted good even though they were small. I harvested about 6-8 seed heads so I can grow baby onions.

It’s August 11, 2021. Normally the tomatoes
would have produced a bounty, an overload, of tomatoes. The vines would be spent by now, burned and crisp by the heat.

But this ain’t a normal weather year.

Today I picked my first tomatoes. By now, I should have gleaming jars of canned tomatoes, spaghetti sauce, BBQ sauce, pizza sauce, salsa, plain tomato sauce and dehydrated tomatoes. Nope. Nada.

My first tomatoes and a few long green beans, second picking
