Days 797 and 799 - Hanging Around in the Garden

It's hot. As Matthew Broderick would say, it's like, Africa hot. Tarzan couldn't take this kind of hot. But nonetheless, Ruth enjoys hanging out in the garden in the mornings before daycare, and I like to oblige. I'm working on reclaiming the non-vegetable parts from the weeds, I am.

I know it looks kind of like an undifferentiated mess right now, but the dark green leaves on the ground advancing right toward you are the Futsu squash, then there are rows of tomatoes, a lattice for beans, and the big tall things are sunflowers along the fence.
