Veggies

 My vegetables are doing pretty good.  I got tired or fighting my way through the hail netting, so with my husband's help I made a door.  

My beans and broccoli are doing great. I'm afraid the chipmunks and mice ate the corn and peas.  Drat.
Here is my husband's giant pumpkin.  He has a good chance of going over 50lbs this year.  It is certainly off to a good start.

I, on the other hand, am going for the smallest melon prize.  Here is my Minnesota Midget.  I have two and they look great1
I have 3 eggplants.  That really makes me happy.  I decided to close up the greenhouse as it really hasn't been overly warm here.  Since I have done that, they are making good gains. 
The chipmunks planted some sunflowers for me in exchange for eating my corn and peas.  They really do look pretty and the bees like them. 
The bees must be doing pretty good, as the keeper has added several boxes.  There is nothing better than honey from your flowers.
The motorcycle rally is finally over.  Just a few leftover bikes.  I have no flower photos.  What the hail didn't nail the deer and chipmunks ate.  So frustrating.  I have some pretty special company coming this week and I'm pretty excited.

How are your vegetables doing?  How are your flowers?  Any part of the summer you are glad is over?
