Still have vivid memories of sitting on the porch in a rocker between Grandma and Great Grandma snapping beans! My Great Grandmother was near on 100 by that time. She kept her long hair her entire life.

Everything is so slow because of the weather, no tomatoes ripe, but getting a steady supply of lemon zucchini and the last of the strawberries. Lovely colours as fall arrives. Just rescued my 'goth gadioli' from the rain. Not a fan of the flowers usually but love the colour.

Gorgeous day out- chores all done. Prepared a few beds for next year, and extra deep one for carrots- need to get more soil. Tomatoes not ripening, a small section of wood and turf, and Trip waiting patiently, some fennel

Potaoes coming upfor Christmas in the background

whatever is still flowering.

When the weather is too hot tomatoes don’t ripen very well.

Yeah hot and dry makes them split.

So in case anyone is curious. I had said back in spring that I planted my corn right on top of my spuds. . I planted two varieties of corn and only one grew (don’t have the name in front of me). I’ve never had success with corn but got more than I’ve ever been able to grow. Got a few small ears. The spuds did fine. If someone has only a small plot, I would say it’s a good pairing. We had a vole early in the season which effected things but am otherwise pleased.
