End of June (& Parts of May) Review

Perusing Goodwill, Savers, and yard sales... Finished a good read...


...& visited the town where my Grandfather spent his childhood.


Picked a few strawberries from our plants. I'm hoping they will fill in their little patch so I can make jam next year.



Planted wax, green, and soup beans. They came up a little sparse this year. I'm thinking next year will be the year to put in a good order of fresh seeds. Only one soup bean came up out of 12. But the packet was free so it was kind of a shot in the dark if any were still viable.



Saw our first lightening bug in May this year!



Also removed our crumbling picket fence :(I'm hoping we can replace it with a similar but nicer white picket fence later this summer.


Made my first batch of jam at the end of May: strawberry.


For the next two weeks it was cherry fest at our house.


"Fixed up" the front of the yard & house for Memorial Day...
