Today I picked some strawberries in the garden. I love it out there. Ever since Kurt put the drip system in, everything is flourishing. It's so fun to walk out and pick a pepper when I need one. We're loving the zucchini and cucumbers and can hardly wait for the tomatoes to ripen (they're just starting to turn red). This is the third year we've planted a garden since we moved to Placerville. We had to put up a 6 foot fence to keep the deer out and build grow boxes because the soil is REALLY rocky here. It just gets better every year.
Our strawberry patch.
There's nothing better than fresh picked strawberries!
We have 2 watermelons so far. They're about the size of volleyballs.
Two of our pumpkins. They're turning orange already. I'm not sure they'll still be around by Halloween.
Tomatoes and peppers.
Some of our bell peppers.

Is Kurt going to build a green house again like the one he had in Tracy?
He's definitely talked about it. He just has so many other things higher on the priority list. I don't know if he'll ever make it that far down the list! ;)
Yummy garden!!! I'm sorry we don't live closer to share all of those strawberries with you!
