Today is one of the hottest days of the year and we're inside staying cool but mom was outside in the yard touring~
This is our vege garden. It was looking pretty good about a week ago when dad had just tilled the soil but we've had lots of rain and the weeds are beginning to get ahead of us again so pay no attention to those nasty weeds.
We're almost ready to pick our first cuc!
And the bell peppers are coming along beautifully!
The tomatoes are still small and there is no hint of pink yet. We think at least another couple of weeks~
The trumpet vine is in bloom~
The waterfowl island is deserted. It's in full sun and it's too hot to sunbathe today - even for the turtles.
The ducks and geese are out of the water and in the shade trying to beat this heat too.
The Mutes are in the water along the edge of the pond in the shade.
Hi Lucy! Lucy eats bread right out of dad's hand and she takes it so gently. Lucy is a sweetie!
These pods are on our wisteria vine. They look like beans and they're fuzzy like a peach. In another couple of weeks they will split open and inside the pod is a seed that looks like a brown lima bean. Does this mean that if you plant it, it will grow? We have no idea. Does anyone know?
We have one beebalm flower - just one! LOL
This flying beauty must be very hungry to be out on this hot sunny day in this heat!
No thank you, mom.
I'm staying right where I am!
Hey guess, what?
This is our 1,501 post!
Love ya lots♥

It's really summer there. Sorry about the heat but you have a fabulous veggy garden. I'm jealous. And, your waterfowl are so well cared for... they are a lucky bunch.
ReplyDeleteYup, that looks like a wisteria seed pod. The ones on the trumpet vine are shaped sort of like that too.
ReplyDeleteYour garden looks wonderful and the birds are pretty smart staying in the shade. Hope the temperatures break soon.
Ooh, thanks! I love seeing other people's gardens. As far as I know, that seed will grow into a wisteria. Let the pod dry up completely and when it's dry as cardboard you should have a black seed inside. Let it dry on the vine.
