Well it was definitely a good summer for Tomatoes. I got around 40 Tomatoes. Out of those, the bugs and critters got 4. The two odd ones are deformed Beefsteaks. They are strange looking. So far, 7 have turned red. There’s still about 10 more on the vines. This is the first time I didn’t get any yield from the Squash. Yes, out of three plants, all the little veggies shriveled, the blooms were gorgeous though.
I did try something a little different. I used Zinnias around the border fence, they were just a little larger than I imagined they would be, but very nice. 
I noticed this thing on my Tomatoes. I’d never seen one before. The “experts,” at work said it’s a Tomato Bug. Only a mother could love the way this thing looks. But I’ll be darned if it didn’t eat half a tomato plant before I noticed. Then it started growing these little white “rice crispies'” all over it. By then I’d removed it..
And if you remember me planting SunFlowers, one came up out of three. For the first time in years there were Monarchs in my yard.
Oh, yes. The Tomatoes were A through Z-licious. Not just D ! There’s still more to pick.
