Today is going to be an interesting day.

Because of the weather forecast I headed off to the allotment garden to do a bit of work.  I try and do just a little bit every day and that way I can keep ahead of the weeds.  I had wanted to take some photos of the potatoes sprouting  through the straw but, the camera battery was dead.  I was debating on waiting until tomorrow but because the potatoes were well advanced I decided to cover them with straw and just wait until they come through this lot.

Because the beans I had previously planted were drowned because of the amount of rain we got in May I found some seeds from 2011 and decided to give them a try.  All my other seeds are somewhere under a tarp in the backyard and not accessible.  I will have to wait until the pile of dirt is gone before I can get at anything there.

I was happily working away doing a bit of weeding after the potatoes were covered and the beans planted when it started to rain.  Big heavy drops so I decided to head off home.  Well this lot of rain only last less than an hour.

Got a call from our son Don and he is going to pick up some ribs from the Kemptville rib-fest and take them home.  We will then be joining him for supper there.  A takeout of ribs from the rib-fest.
