Peas in the Garden

I have peas growing in my garden. Not just vines, but actual pea pods filling with sweet green peas. Although small the garden is growing lush and green and it is a battle to stay ahead of the weeds. It is kinda of like staying ahead of the dog hair in the house.
In addition to peas, I've already been eating lettuce out of the garden, in fact this week I must think about re-seeding some more lettuce. I believe the beets are also just about ready to harvest. The tomatoes all have flowers on them and I may try pulling a shallot to see how they are.
I went to the Middleton Market on lunch yesterday. The Valley floor was a whopping 38 degrees. It was marginally cooler on the mountain and by supper time the fog crawled in and cooled things off, making it almost comfortable by bedtime.
Rob cut a couple of the branches of the big ash tree at the edge of the large field. He'll probably put his tree stand there this fall. He's captured photos of a doe on both cameras in the past week and seen her in the big field as well.
The electrical work is finally done on the house, with a few small exceptions. On to the next project, getting the outside painted. We also went out to look at wood stoves. We have some hard decisions to make and some prioritizing to do. They are much more expensive to install and hook up than we anticipated and the cost of a good stove is also more than we originally budgeted.
On a more positive note, Rob ordered his tractor. He'll receive a shiny green and yellow John Deere in about three weeks. That will help with getting the firewood in and a lot of other chores too.
Too hot to think of more type. Time to kick back with a cool drink.
