garden, raised bed, and doggy pictures

green tomatoes. they stayed green FOREVER this year


watermelon


a couple different vines of the blackeyed peas, the leaves are all weird. all the way up the vine.


the leaves are curled, like shrinkydinks.


the leaves and pods are just beginning to turn brown and dry up


cabbages


brussels sprouts just starting to form


i bought purple coneflower seeds for my dad. the package said plant in summer. it was june. by mid august, this is all the bigger they'd gotten. i think the package lied. i think they need to start early.


the raised bed with ground cherries, and PUPPY! see how his tail curls up over his back? thats apparently not a flat coated retriever feature. what kind of dogs tails do that? maybe puppy has a little shiba inu or husky or something in his mix. its not tightly curled, but its ALWAYS curled up and over.


mollys tail at best only ever sticks straight back, never curls up like puppys. but sometimes i call her thumper because she's got quite the wag to her.


zoomzoomzoom! puppy in the lead, molly on the right. the mailman came. they run from one side of the house to the other. half the time molly doesnt have any idea whats going on, but if puppy is running, then she's running too!


action shots are hard to get in focus. these dogs, they're just so fast! zoom! back to the other side of the house!
