I thought I would share my "new and improved" patch with everyone. I'm the one who was daft enough to start a Big Max pumpkin patch of 12 vines in a VERY small area and without carefully following the packet instructions and doing proper research. HAHAHAH!

I *was* rather sad about ripping out all my cherry tomatoes -- man those things GREW and produced! We had tomatoes coming out of our ears. I must have done something right there :)

I digress -- I have some before and after shots of my garden in my diary for those of you who wanna see what I've done thus far. I've cleared out one area and have 3 more to go. Hopefully I'll get those done this weekend cause I have fruit set in each one.

Shot of my main vine with Hortense. She looks happy!

ROFL! I *just* uploaded pictures of the puppies and cats about an hour before I read this. Heh.

Glad you like Kahless. He is an absolute sweetheart and a gentleman. All the cats like him and Eilidh sleeps curled up between his front and back legs. They wash each other all the time.
