My Garden at it's Best

I came to realize something this summer.  I really dislike perpetually high temperatures.  I really, really dislike being outside in them.  And since this was the second hottest summer on record, I tried very hard to stay inside most of the time.  This is NOT good for a garden.  These pictures were taken at the end of June and it was the best my garden looked the whole summer.  Soon after this the garden became neglected, extremely overgrown and not very productive.  We got lots of cucumbers, but once the heat really started, everything else withered. 
















We will be planting my first fall garden ever today and since I actually enjoy being outside now I hope that it will be well cared for and productive.
