We were lucky and have very little damage in my yard from hurricane Irene. My rain gauge says we got 3.3 inches of rain. The town of Belmont had a number trees down and power was out in some areas. Tomorrow I'll check out the other side of town where my community garden plot is. This area is low and sometimes has flooding.
Glad that you escaped relatively unscathed :)
ReplyDeleteGlad to see your gardens are okay. Hope you take some pics of the community garden after the storm. I hear the storm was a "non-event" in Boston area so glad to hear that. I was thinking of the many gardens up and down the coast that would take a heavier hit.
ReplyDeleteLooks beautiful. We lucked out in my area of RI as well.
ReplyDeleteSo VERY happy for you! Wonderful news.
ReplyDeletehello Kathy,
ReplyDeletethis is a great garden. I wish i have one like that.
I have lots of plants and flowers in my balcony garden, soon i will start working on fall garden.
I am glad to find your blog.
Hooray! =) So glad your home digs escaped damage. V. interested in how the other garden fared. =)
ReplyDeleteI found a picture of your garden with no credit on this website. Just thought I'd give you a heads up. http://www.homeandgarden-tools.com/vegetable-garden-how-to-starting.html
ReplyDeleteglad to hear you did not have a lot of damage! We were very lucky as well no damge and lost power for 24 hours, many friends of mine are still without power and are being told they will have to wait a few more days
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear that you have not had much damage from Irene. My sister was lucky. So many folks in New England were not. Hopefull will get better for them.

Hi thought of you, glad it wasn't as semi-predicted!! Have just returned from Chicago (fantastic city) hearing the news and weather reports all the time we were there, glad it was calmer than suggested! Lots of theories re the weather, not just nature.
ReplyDeleteYour home garden looks lovely. After a week away came home to a very fruitful crop from the lottie, what a lovely organic welcome.
Take care. (Marian LondonUK)

ReplyDeleteskippy where are you,have any problem?i hope you and your family are good and don;t have any trouble.A fanatic of your blogspot from Greece
ReplyDeleteThank you for the note!
ReplyDeleteSkippy and I are fine - i am just working too much. My garden is doing very well. I am taking lots of photos, just not getting time to post. Some weekend, I will update and add stories about whats happening in the gardens.
Last weekend I transplanted some fall seedlings into the garden. I have some tiny lettuce sprouts coming along as I want to fill my cold frame with lettuce for the winter months. I have a beautiful harvest of many types of pumpkins now lined up on my front steps. My Dad has also taken some photos that I hope to post soon.
Have fun in the garden! And take a look out at the Harvest Moon!
Glad your garden fared well! It is a busy time of year, I've also been busy getting things in the ground, & working up more gardens.
ReplyDeleteYes, what a lovely harvest moon! Very pink here, (W. Oregon) from fires a ways away.
Enjoy planting & the harvest!
Beautiful garden! Glad everything was okay for you and your garden. How long did it take for you to have it so large?
ReplyDeleteGlad you survived the hurricane with relatively little damage.
ReplyDeleteLooks good from here.
ReplyDeleteYour garden is beautiful, keep up the good work...Love it
ReplyDeleteAt the farmers' market last week, I picked up some very small cucumbers, pickle size, although there were normal sized ones in the same box, so I don't know if this variety is normally small or what.
ReplyDeleteThey were sweet - does anyone know what variety this might be?
Your garden is so lovely! I'm going to make use of some of the tools you use, such as the online planting tool.
ReplyDeleteCheers,
Alaiyo
Karen Anne, We would need to see a picture. Any cuke can be picked small.
ReplyDeleteAlas, all eaten :-) They were rather warty and crooked.
