The Garden

Behold:  The Garden (Jeremy's Pride and Joy)

Thanks to the owners of the empty lot next door, we have lots of room for everything we could want!

The pickles. (Sadly our strawberry patch turned to mostly a weed patch.  Jeremy will start a new patch this fall.)

The broccoli

Squash and peas

The onions and potatoes

Tons of green beans, more peas, carrots, radishes, kohlrabi, tomatoes, and peppers.  Oh, and don't forget the raspberries!

While we were admiring the garden, Cooper decided he would help with Jeremy's new pest-control mission:  Destroy the Grackles.  

Cooper has come to love his bike helmet.  He will wear it even if his head is dripping in sweat, and he'll wear it whether or not he's on his new trike. 

Case in Point:  Scaring away those "Darn Grackles!"  And I do think they were scared.

"Darn Grackles!"
