:lol: Got to keep my Farmers of the North Badge. :lol:

I got to much time on my hands :lol:

So far so good, but farming can go wrong in a hurry, just like a good colt who ran 2 races, and sent to stud. ;)

DAMN OLDGUY, you're gonna be able to feed half the Saratoga backyard!!!

The plants looks fantastic. I figured you'd be working at the golf course every single day by now. Obviously, you ain't. Nice veggies. Wooley'll be proud of you. :mrgreen: Can't wait for her to see 'em.

I work Sat and Sunday. I had to work 2/12 hour days this weekend, but Ava came down and seen me on Fathers Day.

I was hoping when you got up here, you could pick out your salad, and pick it too :lol:

OldGuy, Lord willing, and everyone stays good and healthy, I hope to be there. We already know you're a whiz with hanging baskets, those gorgeous ones you always had on the back deck. I love 'em. Now you're just as outstanding with veggies.

You and QP, both, farmers at heart. Jus' country boys living in town.

If I lived between the two of you, we'd have the prettiest properties in the neighborhood. I don't know lots about all things, but I sure know flowers. ;)

Glad little Ava came to see you for Father's Day. ;)

Looks really great. I used to enjoy working in my father in laws garden years ago, and took things over for a few years when he passed, but since the move forget it. Just ain't happening here.

Beautiful.

I bet you had to rent a mule and a plow to get that puppy down.

The tomatoes are coming along beautifully with the hot dry days.

I took these this morning - I like what's happening.

Image These cukes are about to overwhelm the rose bush.

Image Zucchini growing nuts.

Image Beefsteak tomatoes are coming!

Image Tomato plants are flourishing.

Image More Beefsteaks.

Image After flowering the zucchini come in like wildfire.
