COVID-19 Quarantine Day 64 - Sunny Garden Make Up Post ‐ Number 1

Hey guys.  I wrote a nice long blog yesterday, but put too many pictures in it and it crashed.  Then I was defeated and never reposted.  The gist of it was that I was happy that the sun came out for a bit, so I went out to the garden and check on things and took some pictures.  I'll have to make it two posts now, obviously.  Here we go...
My boots came in, so I slogged through the yard to go out and check on my garden.  Aren't they pretty??  Between my birthday and Mother's Day I have 4 new pairs of shoes!  😁😁😁
I believe this robin is the reason I have all sorts of holes in my strawberry patch.  I love that he's here eating bugs, but he sure does make a mess.  He's here every day and when I'm in the garden he waits on the fence and watches me.  🤣
I was thinking of possibly getting some dowel rods to prop up some of my corn.  They're leaning, probably a combo of trying to get sun and getting hammered by rain the last week.  Zucchini plants look good!!
My basil looks like it's kind of over the rain.  The peppers, chives, and tomatoes seem to be doing fine though.
Zucchini and cucumbers look good.  I need to plant a few more cucumber seeds in the pile.  But I need to fertilize everything too and haven't gotten around the that either...  Looks like the sun is shining today too, maybe I'll get all this stuff done, finally...
Green onion, broccoli, and cauliflower all look great!  They are probably most protected from weather.  I also learned last year that they prefer cooler weather.  So I think they're really thriving at the moment.

Ok, I'm only halfway done, but I better post.  Because if I lose everything again, these pictures will never make it up...
