sorry it took so long

OK, it took months to get an update done, but I did warn you that I'm not really very good at keeping up with these things.

The garden did rather poorly this year. We got a pretty good yield of potatoes, and carrots. But the tomatoes are still green. We had to pull them out of the garden last week so they wouldn't freeze and they are sitting on out racks waiting to turn red of go rotten. I'm thinking they will go rotten but we can only wait and see.

The pumpkin cage experiment was a bust. I didn't get a single pumpkin out of it. The cages kept the leaves to close together I think and didn't let the plants spread out well enough.

All my wheat came in really nice. I had wheat heads nearly 5 inches long in some cases. I would have pulled in about 50 pounds I think if the deer hadn't eaten all of it. I went out one day and was happy with what I saw and figured It would be ready to cut in about three weeks or so. Then the next day it was just gone. I'm really pissed about that.

that's it for now, again I'm sorry it took so long.
