News from the Garden, August 21st, 2006

While we were on the road I had an industrious 14-year-old watering and weeding for me, so I came home to trees and plants that had grown up a bit, and a wonderful crop of tomatoes and green peppers, which we are still enjoying. I've had very little time to work in the garden, though, with 3 writing projects to complete, as well as helping Honora through her surgery and therapy. Now the weather has turned cold, and I expect the next big task will be leaf-raking. I'll probably be contacting my 14-year-old again...
