Watermelon Harvest

Again, we are still posting about Sept. I had started cleaning out the garden to prepare for my fall, salad garden and had cut out any unnecessary watermelon vines... OR SO I THOUGHT!! A few days later I realized that the final watermelon was not ready yet, BUT the vine was drying up. I checked it out and, YES! I had cut the one leading to that melon!! We got to eat the center of it, which meant about 3 bites for us all. Not such great watermelon success this summer for us. I will try again in the spring tho. Maybe we'll have better luck.

Emma is intrigued with this "ball" in her wagon.

You'd think it was her new best friend!


I just wish it had been allowed to continue growing! It had good flavor.



STILL playing catch-up...
