Yesterday I picked another watermelon. It was at peak of sweetness, just like the 1st one!!!

This morning I picked another big honeydew melon & got it cut up. God I love sweet juicy melons!!!

Picked the last 4 spaghetti squash, the last of the cucumbers & 2 big watermelons (I didn't want them to split). I need to start giving watermelons & honeydews away... there are something like 70 of them out there of various sizes.

Started cleaning up the garden in preparation for the fall planting.

Neighbor just stopped by yesterday evening, so I gave him a couple watermelons & a couple honeydew melons ( I got watermelons coming out of my ears, LOL!!!). There are still 68 of them out there.

Today picked the last of the jalapenos. I got 13 big ones set aside to stuff & the rest I turned into 'Essence of Jalapeno' aka jap sauce. Got another 3 1/2 pints.

Picked 2 more honeydews.
