I went to Palisade, CO for my birthday last weekend and enjoyed harvesting a few cases worth of delicious peaches with my dear sister, my darling daughter #1, and the wonderful grandkids. I brought home Contender and Cresthaven. It was Perfect.

The "traditional " cantaloupe that I ate today had nowhere near the flavor of those I've been eating for weeks.

I found a tiny watermelon buried in the grass.

The tomatoes have decided it's time to fruit. So have the peppers. Cucumbers are slowing down. I don't think I'll do a real adaptation project on those, once I have something that thrives with no inputs.

And a beautiful color. Are all these sandwich-sized maters nice all the way through or does the core get hard?

When fully ripe the core pretty much disappears but before that it can be major.

These pound plus tomatoes would need to be trimmed to fit on a store bought slice of bread.

Hey y'all. I've got two pullets that I've been waiting patiently to begin laying. To break up my boredom (and so I feel less alone) I posted a thread where anyone who wants to can join me in guessing which one and when the first eggs will come. Feel free to stop by and take a guess.
