The Beds Have Been Planted

George and Lisa spent the week end planting the beds they prepared to grow an assortment of vegetables.  They decided that they would plant several different vegetables to see which ones grow the best so next year they will plant the best crops. So they planted corn, green beans, peas, beets, carrots, tomatoes, green peppers, eggplant, broccoli, cabbage, romaine lettuce, bib lettuce, celery, radishes, spinach and turnips.  There is still one more bed to be planted which will be potatoes, sweet potatoes, onions, watermelon, cantaloupe, pumpkin, cucumbers, squash, butternut squash and zucchini.  So, like a said, a variety.  It will be interesting to see what happens at harvest time.  Unfortunately, there were some casualties in the planting of the vegetables.  Several bugs and gnats sacrificed their lives to bite up Lisa.  She got so many bites, especially around her neck and arms that she had to wear a turtleneck to Church to cover her swollen bites.  Thank you Lisa.  Check back on the progress of the crops and harvest time.
