My sugar snap peas are soooooo good. They are sweet and crunchy. I don't have as many vines as I wish I had but maybe this fall I can plant some more. Any way, these things are just good to eat right off the vine.









The strawberries are just going wild. Even with all the rain and flooding, they are still doing very well. A lot of them are rotten down in the foliage but there are plenty to eat and for a pie or two. I have already told my husband to leave two rows in the big garden so I can transplant the strawberries to raised bed rows. They will stay dry better on hilled rows and I won't loose very many next year. Some of the berries are ping pong sized.

This Clematis has been moved twice. It did not do very well in the first two spots. Last year it did pretty well. Blooms were sparse. This year with all of the rain, it has exploded. The blooms are very large and so deep purple. The arbor it is on has a very large clematis on the other side. It is taking over the arbor. The purple one will have to moved again. I'm going to name it, "The Traveling Clematis." Maybe I can give it a permanent home this fall.
