The May 24 Weekend has ended. It rained for part of every day. The rest of the week promises lots of rain and continued warm temperatures, too.
As is the custom, we gardened. Lots of weeding, mowing and cleaning was done. Some beds were edged. We even planted a few things. Mostly hardy-ish plants, like cabbage, broccoli and cauliflower. And Selma. She had set flowers, and was not going to get pollinated indoors.
Yes, I know colder weather is coming. We are watching Selma, and the forecasts.

The exciting news is the peas and beans have sprouted! A few of them are beginning to climb the netting! It’s working! See?
Well, so far, anyway. The lettuce looks much happier in the window box as well. We planted up the rest of them in other containers sprinkled around the deck and yard.
No significant bunny sightings this weekend. I didn’t see any earwigs, but I know they are out there. We did see lots and lots of ants. They have made hills in some of the flowerbeds and have killed at least one shrub for sure.
The girls spotted this little guy, and named him Trevor.
They found a larger toad a few days ago, and named him Nigel. So far he has been camera shy.
