Visiting the Garden

This week I got a surprise as the potatoes have broke the ground and are reaching for sunshine. The other veggies I have planted are doing well. The biggest need is for some rain. It would be nice to see some of those April showers that bring May flowers. The onions are tall and green. I can taste them just looking at them. One thing I have to do is get in the garden with the hoe. The weeds are starting to grow also. It wouldn't be long before Shirley and I are eating a salad from the garden. I started the second planting of lettuce this week as I plant two or three times, so we can eat lettuce for over a month.The cool nights have been good for the crops I have planted. I have included one image of one of the first blossoms on the apple tree. Last year only one blossom appeared on the tree and this year it looks like it will be different. I plan to keep you updated during the growing season.
