I am having a blast in the garden. I got 2 new tools for my birthday 2 days ago from lee valley- from my sons. A fork and shovel...yes that kinda thing excites me LOL.
Anyway, my husband and I have put more effort into the garden this year...we've applied cow manure, greensand, and I apply spray & grow every 1.5 weeks. I have so many blossoms on my plants it's crazy.
some pics of the progress...
one of my zinnias i grew from seed

Wow! Your pictures were like an instant mini vacation this morning as I sit here looking at a gray sky. The rainbow picture - one is a double, isn't it? - is one of the best I've seen showing the delineation between the dark sky in front of the rainbow and the bright sky behind it.
Gorgeous!
Thanks for sharing- Cindy

Great pics! Glad you're having such success!
Our garden is growing better than last year, however the 3 week of too hot and dry weather in June did my spinach in. And, having to use some organic bugkiller on my lettuce. Yesterday, was able to harvest a few leaves of chard, kale and two nice garden salsa peppers . . . our first harvest of the season. And, my burgundy beans are blooming! YAY! CJ
