To The Garden We Go...

This is a pretty good indication of life in the garden this last month.  The past two years have been the worst production of my life.  My tomatoes are bearing little fruit.  My squash and zuccinni are gone.  My corn has shriveled up to nothing.  I am still getting a few cucumbers, and my melons are starting to come in, but nothing to brag about.  Oh well, gardening is a good lesson about Christianity; sometimes there is a dry period before the rains come in and fruit finally bears.  Thank God I have a basement to hibernate in until October. 
Here is a picture of an old replica of a thermometer on our front porch I purchased earlier this year, not that I go out and look at it much.  It reminded me of my grandpa’s that he hung on his light pole on the farm, and looked at it religiously.
