Hot and Humid

SO, nothing much has changed. It's rained on and off almost everyday, I swear. We had rain 28 out of 30 days in June, and July feels like it should be pretty close to those figures. It's been hot and humid. We have had some nice days, but they are few and far between. I've been picking some of the jalapenos and the tomato plants are doing really well, just not turning red. I don't think any of our onions survived and were killed off by the rogue radishes we had. I think we're going to be green beaned out soon as well. Of course I need to make room in our freezer before we start freezing anything.
Since it has been raining so much, I've started re-organizing our house. Today we worked on the computer room. It's amazing how much space you have when you move all of the junk to a different room. We'll just have to deal with the aftermath tomorrow.

Weeds

So we have had an influx of green beans. I picked what I call a "popcorn" bowl just of beans in just one row. I still have one more row to pick, if I can get to them through the potatoes. Of course, I have more weeds than anything. If it isn't raining, it's too hot and humid to be in the garden. The heat index was over 100 on Wednesday. It was so humid I felt like I was swimming while I was outside. Hopefully I'll get some pictures of all of our harvest posted soon!
