Between 2 PM when we finished up with the mustard chore and 8:30 PM when I went to check on things, something chomped off the end of the main on the 1442.5 Caspers. Our last undamaged giant. So if we manage to get a pumpkin this year, it will have to grow on a secondary. I guess I have to do more checking on the electric fence tomorrow, run another hot wire, and sit down in the garden with my rifle to pick off any critters. But there is a bright side. The local TV station showed the tracks of 3 tornadoes from yesterday's storm. One was an EF-0 that touched down less than a mile from our house. If it had dropped down just a little farther to the north, we wouldn't have any garden to worry about.
