Farm Life

 We have been getting a LOT of rain.

But there was a little break.

So we broke out the tractor and tiller

and re-seeded the middle pasture

with sunn hemp and brown top millet

again on Tuesday.

I love the look of a freshly tilled and planted pasture.

And since the ground isn't powder dry,

its a nice, rich dark color.

The garden is also LOVING all this rain.

We actually saw our first baby bean

yesterday when we were out checking.

So give it a few more days and we should

be in bean heaven!

The first two beds on the left are

zucchini and yellow squash.

Yes, we are trying again.

Hahahaha.

Then a couple of beds of okra.

Might be too late for those,

but we had some extra beds,

so thought why not.

And the rest of the garden is beans.

Well, except for one tunnel.

Kyle did two different kinds of cucumbers

on the two sides of the further away tunnel.

But otherwise....? BEANS!

Cat 4 Hurricane Fiona is churning out in the ocean

off our coast - a gazillion miles away,

but she sucked all the clouds away.

And brought HUGE waves!

We only see waves like this when there is a hurricane.

Just glad it wasn't also a full moon!

It was an hour away from high tide and there

was already very little dry beach left.

But we enjoyed an hour sitting and watching

and listening to the power of the ocean

after a busy day at work for both of us.

And now?

Time to get ready for my morning class.

Happy Friday!!!!!
