Ho-Hu-Ha!

That's Rhode Island speak for the weather these days. Hot, Humid, and Hazy!
It's been a good start to the summer. The temperatures have been warmer this June than others that I can remember in my time here. And that means that it's making for good progress in the plot#10.

Here are tomatoes!

The cucumbers are doing well! (in plot#10)

The cucumber plant that's trying to survive up on the hill.

Another squash flower. We've had 3 full grown, ready to eat straight neck yellow squash out of plot#10 so far. This weekend we made squash chips with a few of them. They were pretty good, but took way longer to get crispy than the recipe said.
And... the surprise of the morning -- this pepper.
Yes, we've planted peppers but we have not grown peppers. This was found laying in the front of plot#10 near the sunflower. How strange. Is this some sort of "good-luck-green-thumb-token" that's to be passed around from garden plot to garden plot?
