This year my garden has been so much fun!! For the first time, I have been able to grow melons!
Isn't that cute!!! A tiny cantaloupe!!! The very first one I have ever grown!! Why is this important! My grandfather, from Oklahoma, was a watermelon (and peanut) farmer. I remember when we used to visit him and my grandmother in Oklahoma, he would take me out to his fields. I would see these HUGE watermelons and GREAT big bushes. I remember he pulled on bush up and the roots were loaded with peanuts. Every year, he would load our car with watermelons. Though, I haven't grown a watermelon yet (that is next year, Pappy Daddy!!). I hope an old farmer is looking down from Heaven with a smile on his face and is proud of how his granddaughter turned out.
My first eggplants!! OK, this is not a major accomplishment! BUT for me it is!! AND I have TWO!! How exciting is that!!! It is all how you look at life!
