Monday, May 30, 2011 Memorial Day Forget-Me-Nots (Myosotis sylvatica) seemed to be an appropriate image post for the holiday today.

Sunday, May 29, 2011 Tomatoes This afternoon Lisa & I built a third raised garden bed. Afterwards, we set in a variety of tomatoe plants, including, Supersonic, Roma and Black Krim, an heirloom tomatoe that originates from the Isle of Krim in the Black Sea and is quite delicious. I also set some grape tomatoe plants in pots on the deck. Next year we will hopefully be able to start our plants from seed instead of purchasing them from the local Agway, although the prices seemed fairly reasonable.

Saturday, May 28, 2011 One-Horsepower Mower Caspian is doing his part at keeping the grass down. This is an area we've fenced off specifically for him, in which to have grass. The black flies are a real plague right now and the mosquitos are joining in whole heartedly, hence the mask he is wearing.
