Summer is here?

They always say in Seattle that "summer doesn't start until after July 4th."   Last week rolled around, we were at the family birthday/4th of July picnic, and it was a blindingly gorgeous day.  Blinding because it has been so dang cold around here the last 2 weeks we are all mole-like in our ability to handle the sun.
Finally my tomatoes may have a chance.  It does not do well for my ego to work with a bunch of professional horticulturists at my nursery job.  The yields they get from their gardens vs. what I get is mindboggling.  Right now they are making salads with peas and strawberries... I have one flower on my bean vines.   But dangit I am lovin' that little future bean!
