Mark was off early last night and actually beat us home from the doctors office-well I guess for us anyway 6:30 is early, so he was able to work in the garden and get the potatoes in…

Mark with his helpers!

Using the tractor Mark put in 5 long trenches in which to plant the potatoes...
Yukon Golds, Russets, and some Norland Reds…

The pea fence...
On Thursday Sawyer planted peas and for a trellis he used some cattle panels, now that we don’t need them for lambing jugs anymore. We’ll see how well that works, they are definitely easier to put in then a long strand of chicken wire that tangles. They are also a convenient length of 16 ft. and can be cut easily to smaller sections. We’ll see what else we can get in tonight!

Poor Zayne is still not feeling real well today...
After visiting the doctor yesterday it was determined that my sweet little man did have a bad ear infection :0( but he’s hopefully on the mend now…
