I saw something today that I've never seen before--a truck pulling a flatbed trailer upon which rested a helicopter. And not just any helicopter--this one was painted aqua blue and was a fairly good size. Who was hauling it? Where were they taking it? I don't know but I wish I'd had a camera with me so I could have taken a picture.
In other news, this summer has been very HOT so far. I'm not a hot weather person, in fact, hot weather brings me down. It's been great for my garden though--I'm now starting to find ripe cherry tomatoes when I get home from work. The Brandywine, an heirloom variety, will make its appearance later on. (Hopefully, that is). My tomatoes are late because I started them from seed in the ground. But they're doing great. Even my pepper and kohlrabi plants have recovered and I may get something from them (keeping my fingers crossed). I was going to plant winter squash but decided not to, not sure if I'd have enough room for them. I'm going to plant more lettuce and spinach when it gets cooler since these veggies like the cool weather. I'm thinking of putting a raised bed in the front yard where the maple once stood, using ornamental edibles. Anyone for Bright Lights swiss chard?
