Quit whining you rainfall 1%ers. We got nothing.

Well, I'm not talking about Scott or Texas John, but some of you (you know who you are) were talking about multi-inch rainfall amounts when we folks in N. Texas couldn't get much more than a picture of too much rain in San Antonio on the 10 PM news. All that considered, I feel darn lucky to get this terrific rainfall in mid-June, and for which I am eternally thankful.

While my garden is sooo wet, I managed to find a job I could do. I put up my 40% shadecloth. It was a snap to put up using 6' bamboo poles and twist ties to my netting and support cord. Here are a couple of pictures:





...and does anyone see what I see in this photo? Baby blackeyed peas! YEA!

There are some pretty funny bean pickers on here...

Kyle; You and I might be the only "sane" ones left! Oh, and Brandi too! :laughing:

jinman; That shadecloth looks good! I'll bet it will extend your season, for harvesting!

Oh, and happy anniversary!
