and the darkness reigns ...

  as in 5:10 this morning ...

  no power ... and in rural America,  it becomes dark -- and there is no flushing ...

  so I packed up my towel and tooth brush and headed to the office.   sometimes it's good to have an office in an old shack that once was a home!  (even better to have showered just before bed)
 
  so, no pictures of my sad sad sad looking patch ... find 'em on my facebook page ... I did pick an ATV load of watermelon last night -- more tonight and tomorrow for Saturday's market -- they seem to have weathered the heat better than expected --

  the growth has stopped -- unless it rains, then the small ones will take off ... the vines adjacent to the cornfield look pretty good -- the shade from the corn was helpful ... ditto for the squash ....

  it appears the pumpkins are baking in the field --

  what a year eh!

  
  well, more time to sew, and travel and ....

ps.  on my camera is my super-secret quilting project ... have to wait until the gift is gifted!   queen size quilt -- it was a bugger to get loaded but the quilting went slick!   now it's make needs to attached the yards of binding and get the hand sewing done!
