3 Miles yesterday PM on the treadmill for a change. I did not get enough sleep Thursday night and just could not drag my arse out of bed.

I thought I would post about my garden today. I have not wrote about it much but I love to grow a vegtable garden every year. Its a good thing my wife likes to can foods because our garden has really produced this year. I planted about 55 tomatoe plants since last year our tomatoes did not do well at all.

Here is a list of what I can remember we planted.

  • Corn- We got about 400 ears off of them. They are done
  • Tomatoes
  • Bell Peppers

  • Jalepeno Peppers
  • Tobasco Peppers(I planted them just to see what it would be like)
  • Chile Peppers
  • Egg Plant
  • Sweet Potatoes
  • Cucumbers

  • Peas-Purple Hull and Speckled

  • Green Beans
  • Squash
  • Watermelon
  • Cantelope
  • Okra

Here are some pics
