Maybe we'll get some rain tomorrow and a little relief... none in sight for today. I've wanted to remember the 20th so many times and it got away from me. This will probably be my last harvest unless the peppers and okra hold out... we'll see about it next month.

I couldn't help but think of all the meomories you are creating with him. We have had a taste of your weather here he last few days-UGH! I am not enjoying it. I much prefer the cooler than normal days we were having. Even though your veggie garden is winding down the 'fruits' still look wonderful.

I can't believe those wax beans- they just keep on coming! I think I'll skip the green and pole beans next year and just plant these. <br /><br />Your helper reminds me of my nephew!

I can't blame him for eating up those yellow tomatoes. And you know, I sympathize with you guys on the sweat. It has been so muggy lately. Looks great!

Hopefully we'll get some kind of front to relieve us (and you too) soon... even if just for a little while. The tropicals love it but not the veggies. <br /><br />My little helper figured out popping those little candies in his mouth right away. We rinse them and eat them for our morning snack...
