A pretty nice start to the day that ended with sprinkles by evening chores.
At the moment, we do have pink and purple blossoms in several of the gardens.
I made another trip to Wegmans to get a few things as at long last, I am having bridge here on Friday. It's been a very long time and I'm really looking forward to it.
Gary had a meeting this afternoon and came home to announce that we are now on the garden tour on July 19th. Our raised beds are going to be loaded and the garlic will still be in the ground. It's going to require a heck of a lot of energy to get all the gardens cleaned up. I wonder what will be blooming at that time. Today he planted yellow acid free tomatoes, cherry tomatoes and our San Marzanos. Green and Red bell peppers too. He already planted snow peas, zucchini, carrots, beets, shallots, onions, cabbage, potatoes, blueberries and transplanted some strawberries. Our raspberries won't be ready for a long time and we still have plenty of rhubarb. Strawberries are getting bigger everyday and we must have about 200 plants. Yum.
I had some bratwurst and put together some sauerkraut with onions to top it off. Finished up the potato salad and added some dill pickles. Another picnic dinner.
Chores a little after 8. It had been raining for awhile.
We have several lupins that must be loving the weather this year. This is where the purple comes in.
That's it. The temperature is going down to the 40s tonight.
Night all.

A garden tour! Wow that is impressive!
I had to read this post to Mark. Everytime he complains about the work I bring up Gary. He says you both must be aliens. 😄I can't tell you how much I enjoy doing that! You will have a family effort getting everything spruced for the tour.
