Return from vacation

Since we were away for a long weekend, we were all eager to see how things had progressed in the garden while we were gone.  The added factor of a fair amount of rainfall on Friday meant we had the potential for a lot of growth.

We weren't disappointed.

I'm happy to report that we have more tomatoes ripening on the vine.  While the majority are still green, there is more redness to be found.



We had a lot of cucumbers waiting to be picked.  Unfortunately, there are a few that are a little over-large.  I suspect they will really be loaded with seeds.


We were all very excited to see that we have our first bean flowers, too.


The Boy also has his first infant zucchini started.


Also, we have a few more asparagus starters that have awakened from slumber.  I took a picture, but the shoots are so wispy that everything looks blurred in the picture from my iPhone.  Someday we'll get a good SLR camera, but for now I use my phone.

The last crop change (and I didn't get a picture) is that our corn is both much taller (8' tall or more) and that we have more of the sprouts (flowers?) that area typical precursors to cob-formation.
