The good life, take 2, and more...

Our "come on over, the grill's hot" call to friends developed into a swell little Sunday evening party. About 20 of us - climbers, coffee drinkers, gardeners, runners, music players - all got together for amazing food and good company. Berries were in abundance, corn made its first appearance, and local peaches perfectly balanced the pork and bell pepper kabobs glazed with Buck Hollow Farms honey and Kentucky bourbon (a nod to the south).

The garden is transitioning from early summer to late summer crops, and we're behind on pulling out the old and planting the new. Shiv's zucchini is one of few fresh vegetables right now as we eagerly await peppers and tomatoes. The bush beans look like they might make it, and I see some other squash flowers.

There really aren't enough hours in a day. I have good intentions to post about a weed product I found, introduce our furry garden friends, scan vintage photos from gardens past, and so much more. I'll get there... a new routine takes awhile to find some kind of groove, but I'm aiming for that!
