I can't believe that it has bee over a month since my last post. Time flies when the weeds are growing. We have a fun activiy planned for this 24th of July week-end. Ada sent the following to be posted on "The Garden" Blog.
When the pioneers of 1847 first entered the Salt Lake Valley on July 24th it was a barren, alkali flat. Our community garden area looks a lot like what those pioneers saw. Over time, with prayers and work, they produced wonderful gardens and ample harvests... With the Lord's help, we can do the same.
The pioneers did morning chores before breakfast... so we are asking everyone to come to the garden and help with 'chores' before the Pioneer Breakfast at Christensen Park this Saturday, July 23. 
The garden work will begin at 7 a.m. and we will quit at 8 for breakfast next door at the park, and children's games, and a parade at 9:30 a.m.
Join us for an all morning Pioneer Celebration of fun!
Squash bugs are everywhere. All degrees of divine intervention and voodoo magic are urgently needed!

We had three cute girls and their Primary teacher do some weeding in "The Garen", and they are all still smiling.
A month ago we had a contest to see how many tomatoes were in the garden. Linda Trask won the contest with a guess of 25 red and 150 green.
The actual count was 16 red 229 green. Thanks to the Alexanders and Sister Cox for the official count. We had fun that night and the kids planted peanuts and pumpkins. They made signs to mark their plantings.
