Mid summer

Our garden and small farm are getting ripe under burning sunray.

A couple of tomatoe plants in front of flowers. In this rainy season, rain has had tomatoe plants infected badly. Only a couple of plants are well grown. So I have added 10 plants germinated from seed. These are the last 2 plants, which are waiting to be planted somewhere from the pots.

 
My rosemary garden. Very healthy and long lasting flowers. I like them very much. I have gathered all of them at a corner in the garden. Some have been growing from the seeds which were scattered about from their mother flowers last year.
 
 
Egg plants. They are very good cooked with finegar and soy sauce after being fried.
 
 
Sweet potatoe plants. They will be good material for boiled vegetables.
 
 
Indial lilac. The flower in the mid summer. Looking up them in full bloom, I feel mid summer has arrived here.
 
 
 
I should go on struggling weeds until the end of August. Sitting in the garden, I pull the weeds without thinking any other things. A lot of sweat out of my body. Concentration. What peace I am in! May this peace last long for us!

    Your Lilac flowering trees are very nice to see. Lolita's favorite flowering tree is the Lilac. We had one in our back yard when we lived in Oregon back in the late 1960's. your tree's are very plesant to look at and remember!

    1. Thanks, Bob. I am sometimes googlemapping the coast of Oregon. Very few people seem to live there. It must be a nice place. I hope you have enjoyed your visit there this summer. This lilac tree was planted by my father almost 40 years ago, I believe. We owe everything in the garden to him. It is surely a flower in mid summer. I could imagine how you both love this tree.

  2. Shin, we were born in the same year and were first licensed the same year. Not only do we share a love of CW, but gardening and flowers also. This is one of the wonderful things about ham radio, to get on the air (tonight, 40m) and a QSO with you leads me here to this blog. I look forward to our next QSO, and to reading more of your blogs. 73, Steve ZL2KE

    1. Steve,

      Yes, I have noticed our milestones coincided each other. We might have spent the days in the same way. You seemed to have come back on the radio recently. I hope to catch you soon again.

      Shin
