A Good Day’s Harvest

A successful day

A suc­cess­ful day

14 ears of corn, 3–4 toma­toes, 2 cucum­bers, a hand­ful of ser­ra­nos and jalapenos, 6 ounces of yel­low toma­toes and a ran­dom eggplant.

Terrified but going somewhere safer.  I think.

Scooter has been hell on the wildlife this spring, more than any other year so when I found this lit­tle guy hid­den in our Cop­per Canyon daisy, I knew he was a sit­ting duck, short term. I grabbed him and set him loose near the creek where he seemed to be more than happy to get away from scary old me, not ever know­ing what scary old Scooter would do to him if he found him. We still have one more of his broth­ers or sis­ters in the corn patch but I’m going to assume he’s safe for now.
