Your cabbage harvest looks so good. When the weather gets very hot, tomato plants prefer some type of shade cloth to help reduce the stress from the heat. Maybe next year or when the weather turns cooler,

The park looks like a wonderful place to enjoy nature and get some good exercise. Beautiful photos!

You saw a nice variety of birds on your walk. Love the parrot on the ground, so colorful.

As always, such amazing sunrises are captured to share with us.

I love the haybales with the mountains behind. Beautiful country for sure. Smart to save wear and tear on your own vehicle.

A very clever and colorful way to recycle objects.

Thank you so much, Hylene. Gardening certainly is a lot of work, but very satisfying, too.

I agree, the June bearing berries are almost done. I couldn't do it this year. I hope you can get some for yourself. They are very expensive this year to buy. Max certainly got taller and wider, lol. Time

Thank you, I do my best to eat healthy. I like seeing how you prepare your meals too.

I'm right there with you, darn carbs! We had a heavy thunderstorm and lots of rain too. The plants are loving life right now.

Dang, you certainly know how to live on the wild side! Glad you're safe and sound.

Ellen, they are so darn cute! Glad you got to see them and share them with us. Have a great day.

Absolutely stunning photography, Maria. You sure know how to capture the moment!

They are beautiful! I love all the colors, especially that last one, wow!

It's awesome that you have customers for some of your produce. I, too, love sweet potato tops and cook them just like you did. Happy gardening.

Thank you, @markone85 for your visits.

You have a huge garden, my friend. Wow, that is a lot to take care of, but I'm sure it really feeds your family well. Great job!
