- I caught two raccoons over the weekend. I had to start setting out the trap because they aren’t being the friendly neighbors that I want. They destroyed some stuff in my shed, but the proverbial straw that broke the camel’s back was when one knocked down Robin #'1’s nest and ate all the babies. I have no idea how he got up high enough, but he did – I caught him in the aftermath. Now I am on the warpath. I plan on setting the trap every weekend until I stop catching any more raccoons
- I got my first red tomatoes! And a couple beautiful cucumbers… I am so happy
- And the other good news is - I *am* getting peppers! It’s weird how they are growing… it’s like all the flowers were on the underside of the plant, so I didn’t see any of them. The peppers are still teeny-tiny, but at least I know I’ll be getting some
- I had my first (veggie) BLT of the season. I can’t even begin to describe how good it was. I’ll be eating these at least twice a day until the frost kills off all my tomatoes… I wait all year for these
- That all being said, I threw three baby bunnies out of my (fenced in) garden
