An apple update:
The blueberries are starting to take on their signature color, I better get them netted.
The chipmunks have been stealing the strawberries as soon as they near their prime, I am hoping they get lazy soon. I REALLY want some berries!
I am getting very excited for tomato season to start, the plants seem to be coming along nicely.
Today's harvest:
We built a fire pit this weekend on a whim, usually we just use one of those bon-bon drum thingys. Not bad for the cost of a bag of mortar....we had slim pickings for rocks though, that was the true challenge. The pit was broken in last night......
And look what I discovered when bug hunting and watering the potatoes today:

That's too funny about the straw-bed! I hope it isn't something "icky"!! Firepit looks great, we use ours all the time. I, too, am having a great time watching those little apples develop this year, I will cast a little garden spell for us to have gorgeous, no-insect-damage apples for us this season!
I have firepit envy!!
I love blueberries! I have tried to grow them few times - no success.
Dani- I understand, trust me! I was sick of the kids and the dogs walking too closely to our other fire contraption, this is much more safe.
vrtlarica- they can be picky about pH. I am having a very hard time lowering mine to their liking.
Erin- yes, our precious apples better not be wormy!
Hi Kelly - finally have time to sit and catch up with my e-friends - you unfortunately are always last, why is this you may ask - it is because your blog commands to be read slowly and savored, i love it! - I learn so much from you too! Off to read more, hope you are well, peace
The chipmunks around our parts enjoy the strawberries when they are still green. Unfortunately, I have none left. Boo!
Those rascally rabbits! I'm growing tired of seeing them (even though they're cute).
Better chipmunks than fruit rats which is what we have here in Florida...yick! I do love the little bunny bed.
Fruit rats huh?? Might this be a good time to confess that I used to keep rats as pets? I LOVE the domesticated version.
