I know it was silly, but I did start a garden here this spring. In part because we did a Cub Scout den project that involved planting seedlings. I ended up with several leftovers and I just stuck them in my garden plot.

Enjoy some pictures of the modest little harvest I might have had if it weren’t for all the bugs and birds that helped themselves first.

I planted the garden in late March. By May it was looking fantastic! Too bad the birds thought so too.

I let the birdseed grow some:

Sunflowers!

Crookneck squash. Timmy was very interested in how squash grew...too bad he doesn't like squash.

I have quite a few tomatoes, and I'm sad about having to walk away from them all in a couple weeks.
