Do you see what I see? Sunshine. Can you believe it? And there are two more days of sunny skies in the forecast too. Did you know the Seattle area had one of the wettest winters on record this year? Yes, yes they did.
No wonder I was so grumpy. But now? We have sunshine…. so life is good again.
Miss Puggle Love and I worked in the backyard for a few hours yesterday clearing off the patio and setting up the vegetable garden area. I had ordered 5 yards of Tagro but decided it was just too much so I canceled my order and talked the HH into picking up some garden soil for me this weekend instead.
I tentatively mapped out the garden area and set up the bean teepee. Lucy got a hold of one of the teepee legs as I was putting it into place and so instead of 5 legs, it had now 4. Hopefully I can find another long stick before I get the beans planted.
We also set up some pots and trellises along the back patio and put the tomato cages in place in the stock tanks and larger pots on the back patio. I think I’ll plant snap peas in the pots with trellises for now and maybe nasturtium in them later this summer.
Have you thought about planting your seed potatoes yet?
Lucy and I planted 7 All Blue seed potatoes yesterday.
Now, if I can just keep her from digging them up. 😉
Have a great weekend everyone,
