August 9th

8/9/14
Don was staining the wood today on the upper patio and the posts and balusters for the steps so tomorrow we can put up the gate and rail supports on the stairs. I dug up the garlic and cut a bunch of pickling cucumbers so I'll be making at least one jar of pickles next week. I'm debating cutting some of the tomatoes and bringing them in to ripen thanks to the bugs.  Organic gardening is painful at times; I've lost at least 8 ripe tomatoes as well as some about to start ripening green ones. I've also lost some eggplants to bugs. :( Such is life when you don't want chemicals in or around your food.
