We started off May with a bit of a cloudy day and rain shower but the warmer temperatures are here to stay. And with the blessings of a rainy spring thus far our garden, vineyard and orchard are thriving.
In the garden, we have planted the following: spinach, cucumbers, onions, garlic, lettuce, peppers, strawberries, blueberries, mint, eggplants, tomatoes, beans, zucchini, watermelon, cantaloupe, peas, and potatoes. We have starters for more spinach, asparagus, celery, carrots and melons.
The pomegranate orchard is progressing nicely with a new well that produces enough water to feed our beautiful baby trees. Art has been busy installing the irrigation lines with valves and nozzles for each row. The grass is officially beyond knee high which means a lot of reaping with the scythe in my future.
Bobi, the puppy has grown and found his growl and bark. We have two new additions here as well.
I've spent the better part of the month editing and prepping the novel Recover or Yield, book two in the Ember in Time series. Official release will be June 1, 2021.
