We are already in high summer

Between watering the garden and watering the flowerbed in the yard AND watering my vegetables, I never seem to have enough time to get online :s Jeesh ... this May has gotten away from me in more than one thing. It has been exceptionally hot and nature has been working over time ... It is the end of May and we are already harvesting strawberries, raspberry and lettuce. My tomatoes are coming like mad as well as my courgettes. The wheat on the fields already turns golden and we are in desperate need of rain.

Today, beyond our garden gate.

It's nice to hear from you. What a nice view from your home. If I call it right, you're near Dorthmund. You mentioned about traveling to the city from your home, alone, with all your pet dogs. (forgot how many of them!)

Those fruits are yummy. I wouldn't mind feeding on tomatoes for three straight days (remember KImura's challenge?).

Best regards and take care .

Near Duesseldorf :) Yeah the crops and veggies are coming about nicely. Atm we have a pandemic of EHEC which is a vicious virus that causes diarrhea and in some cases kidney failure. The virus has been found on vegetables (esp. tomatoes and cucumbers) so we are eager to have our own vegetables ready soon.
