Well today I harvested the first of the sugar pumpkins, they may not be perfect but I am thrilled.

The last of the bell peppers came off the plant yesterday. Now if only the remaining ten pumpkins and all the tomatoes would ripen in the next week I would be a very happy camper.
I am anxious to get started on next years plot but, first we finish the patio. :)

I am so jealous! I was hoping to have enough pumpkins for each of my grandkids to get one, but the squash borers got all my vines. Your pumpkins are beautiful! ENJOY!!!!

great job. My sugar pumpkins have done well too - never grew them before but I love them.

Moni, be sure to get that Dipel Dust for the base of your squash plants next year - it'll stop those stupid SVB's. Also, when we got them, we replanted right away and got a smaller, second crop...but this time we but the dipel dust.

how do you all get photos in your posts? I finally got the link to that one (above) to work but I've never known how to do this correctly.
