Oh, yes, and I went to town and got sand this afternoon. Put a scoopful under four different pumpkins. they look more comfortable now. I'll spray for bugs again tomorrow if it's not raining. Didn't run the tractor and disk today because of the rain. Did I mention that a big deer ran across the field as I was going to the field yesterday? And my husband hollered from the porch that a coyote was headed toward the garden earlier in the morning. When I asked where it was, he said it spooked and ran the other way. Hope to be able to run tomorrow since we've got less than 1/2"; however, the thunder is rumbling as I type. The weeds are coming, need to get it disked.

We don't like okra or roma tomatoes. Nice crop, though. My onions, potatoes, zucchini and sugar baby pumpkins have all died of various causes. But my big pumpkins are lookin' good. I know where my priorities are.
