Who is THIS?!!?

Not a garden friend.  Had to re-home this bad boy to the woods.  Destroyer of tomato plants.  Probably more to come.  Creepy big boy. 

First garden volunteer done and dusted.  Harvest day for the food pantry.  I picked and tied 10 lbs of collard greens.  Might not look like much, but it was HARD.  My right hand was weak and shaking by the time I finished cutting them all.  Props to farmers.  2 hours of cutting about took me out.  I had a good time and learned a few things too.  The volunteer organizer asked, "do you want to pick what you know or learn something new."  She read my mind -- what a great question.

All stacked.  Doesn't look like much
but it was a feat for me.  Each
stack is packed with leaves.

I got some leftover sweet potato shoots to plant.  Might be a little late in the season, but I have a couple of free pots to give it a try.

New library reads.

Finished in an afternoon.
Fun suspense, easy and fast.

Started this ... 

Today is a hodgepodge of home stuff.  I need to do some garden maintenance -- the broken storm plants aren't going to make it.  Time for a garden refresh.  Chores, reading, rock painting rounds out the day.  I'm looking forward to a home day.

Hope you're having a good Saturday.  Later gators.
