First harvest most years is maybe a handful of beans. Not this year! I'll pick more later. I do want to try making a small batch of pickled beans just to see if I like them.

Venus, Jupiter, Moon, Mercury.

We won't see them from here tomorrow because the weather will be scary.

Drip irrigation inside the anti-squirrel cage is working. 13 tomato plants and 5 cucumber plants. Also got drip set up for the adjacent zucchini and pepper bed. Next week I'll set up the onion bed and the bean beds.

So far so good for the monarchs. These four, plus three in other locations we could find. One is still munching on the milkweed plant about 5 feet away from the porch.

The one that joined the overhang yesterday hasn't progressed that I can tell. I'll check again this evening if I'm home before dark.
