Marigolds, sweet peppers and watermelons

The cabbage seeds are up
And in a big surprise, some of the watermelon seeds I got from Lucky in 2021 are germinating. I kept them in the refrigerator but was still surprised when three of them popped up. Those 20 Watt germination mats are a marvel.

I got 20 Stocky Red Roaster pepper plants into the ground. I planted them in the potato patch beside the main aisle. South side of path, west end of the garden. 

Cucumber seedlings hardening-off outside. My apologies for the crappy light. I took these pictures late in the day.

Marigold plants along left side of frame. Tagetes minuta plants on far-side of fencing. Federle tomatoes planted next to fence on left so that I can train them up the fence on left side of the enclosure. Enclosure for night time for ducks dominating right side of frame. Yes, that is a truck-cap.

If things work out, Mrs ERJ will be able to sit in her favorite chair next to the window and see Crackerjack marigolds blooming in the garden. 

God willing, I will till the patch of ground Southern Belle intends to turn into a corn patch today. I will make an effort to take pictures.

I am not the only busy person

The people selling ducklings and barrels are a little slow getting back to me. Perhaps they are also busy planting gardens.

Quicksilver music

Quicksilver is more interested in music videos where there are women and/or children in them.

One interesting interpretation of this song is that narrow-minded town-folk are mocking a formerly beautiful, middle-aged woman who gave her life to Jesus during her prime. John 14:1-2
