How does your garden grow?


It's been raining for 3 days here. I totally love the rain. I am the type of person that would love hurricanes. I remember living in Puerto Rico when Hurricane Jorges hit. I loved it!!! The wind, the rain... Wow.. I was safe inside a cement house. What did I care! That house wasn't going anywhere.

The reason for me bringing up the rain is that my garden is growing so well. I can't believe what the rain has done for it. I mean it could only make it grow more. When I decided to grow a vegetable garden it was only for tomatoes. Then I decided that I didn't want to pay $1.05 for green peppers so I threw a few of those plants in. Then I decided that I wanted corn but I wasn't sure that it would grow real well out here so one day I go and get a bag of different seeds and a bag of soil. I sat down at my table with foam cups and plant my little seeds kidergarden style. I fed them and watered them everyday. Gave them plenty of sunshine and watched them germinate. Donald told me that I was crazy and that it won't grow. Well, they did grow and so I transplanted them and wow.. LOOK AT THEM NOW!!! I'm gonna have pumpkins in October!!! Lots of them!!
