It is hard to realize the summer is moving by so quickly. I can see it in the field though. I see rows of new seedings – beets, carrots, broccoli family, etc, – for fall. We push many of our favorites to produce in the summer, but they really prefer the cooler fall weather – lettuces, the whole broccoli/kale family, etc.
I forgot to write this last night and will keep it short. So you don’t all have to ask about my bandaged finger: Sliced it across the knuckle Friday. It is healing nicely, but pulls open if I don’t keep it splinted. The stitches were supposed to stay in 10 days, but came loose after 3 and we decided to not restitch it – just be good about keeping it immobile. Doesn’t hurt, but slows typing down.
As far as what to expect today – lots of squash/zuke/cukes. I cut way back on my squash planting this year, but they are one thing that is growing exceptionally well this year. It is already 6:15 so I’ll close this and see you this afternoon. Have a good day.
