Oh, It's On Now!


Wednesday June 8th was the first time this gardening season that I saw a Woodchuck milling about at the edge of our backyard. He was bold enough to venture just a few feet from the cover of the wooded over growth and onto a patch of clover where he nibbled a while. Of course the bugger ate two of our Queen Anne's Lace plants on his way to the clover patch, of which there are very few this year - STRIKE 1!

Friday June 10th I received a text message from JoAnne with an attached picture (see after picture below) that read, "Oh Uh...". The sumbeach got the courage to venture approx 50' into our side yard and helped himself to a beautiful, softball size head of broccolli that we were just days from picking - STRIKE 2 and STRIKE 3!!

That dude isn't gonna know what hit him...
