Ay, yi, yi. Kick ass day in the garden. The following, officially
joined the garden today, two peanuts, 6 green beans, 9 sunflowers, 
16 Dent corn (Yellow Daddy or some such), 16 Golden Bantam, 
and 6 tromboncini, a.k.a. zuchetta (kind of a vining zuch, tastes a 
little like artichoke). Not that bad for a day of heat. 

Last year was a pitiful year in my garden. There were three day when the 
temperature was at or over a hundred. The year before was a great year 
for me and there were 12 days at or over one hundred.

The plants like the heat, but after a day of piddling around in the 
garden, I smell like a tired horse.
