Well I thought I'd just put a whole lot of pictures in this post to show how the garden is doing so far this summer. The peonies have come and gone and the roses are on the downswing. There are still quite a few blooms and the garden is very fragrant but not as floriferous as last week. We have side let the chicken girls out to wander the garden as I weed. They are good weeding companions but yesterday they made a jailbreak and wandered into the husband's blueberries as we were talking to a neighbor. They decided that they liked them. We also have discovered during the last couple of weeks that one of the chickens is not-a chicken. We have a rooster in our midst. He likes to crow. Unfortunately I like him. Fortunately our immediate neighbor doesn't care and the neighbor on the other side can not and better not complain because his dogs are much more obnoxious then my rooster. So we will see how it goes. If it goes badly-hello coq au vin....
