Left For the Second One

Image
  I mentioned two or three weeks back that my wife had scheduled her time off for two separate weeks with a single week of work in-between. Thus, as you read this we are off on our second vacation of the summer. Our first was a road trip east of the Mississippi and this one will be a road trip west of the Mississippi. Most likely responses to comments will be non-existent for the next 10 or so days but eventually I will respond to them all. Above is one of many similar garden harvests that we've had this summer. Every other morning, I go out into the garden and harvest things as needed to stock up our pantry or in the case of the sweetcorn and tomatoes, as it ripens. The okra above is for the most part, far too big and woody to consume but I picked it for this picture and threw most of it into the compost. This particular picture was taken after our return from our first week long vacation and okra doesn't stop growing just because we aren't here.
