Garden Update

Since my Dad's passing I have been very busy taking care of business. This morning I gave myself a break and went outside to see how my garden is doing. Lately we have had lots of rain, humidity and high temperatures. These factors have not hindered my garden from growing rather well, as you can see by the photos below:

Here are my sweet pepper plants. I started most of these from seeds inside our house

 Below are my 2 plots of corn

 Below are my tomato plants in the wired cage that I built

 Below are my potato plants that I am growing for Veronica. They are mainly Yukon Gold with a few Northern Red

My Dad loved gardening and I think he would have enjoyed the way my garden is turning out

The Passing Of My Dad

Veronica and I moved to the Virginia Beach area approximately 4 years ago. We made the move so that we could help take care of my Dad as he grew older.
Our Dad passed away on 4/21/18 after leaving his home to go to his Saturday dialysis appointment.
He passed away 2 days after we celebrated his 89th Birthday.
This house is awful quiet without him being here.
Dad...we love and miss you!

Gardening Season Has Finally Begun

I finally got everything planted in my gardens.
Corn is coming up, tomatoes have been transplanted outside, sweat peppers have been transplanted outside and into their pots on the back deck and potatoes are growing like crazy.
Here is what everything looks like as of Saturday, 5/5/18:
