Container gardening is still my favorite way to grow stuff.

And I found a wren's nest in one of my plants. Momma bird got a little annoyed, but she came right back.

Aww, excellent! Most people since my move here to Vermont know me as Wren, which was my nickname when I was a little, chatty round child!Quote:

Congratulations!
Today, I found a praying mantis on one of my plants. I'm always happy to see them as they prey on garden pests.

Honestly, I'm getting sort of tired of eating tomatoes!
It's finally cooling off. Until 2 days ago, we had temperatures in the 90's and no rain for almost 2 months.
Still no rain, but at least the heat has subsided.
