July is like it is supposed to be -- hot, with temperatures in the 90's. However, there is compensation, especially for those who have vegetable gardens. Now is when earlier work pays off generously with a variety of fresh vegetables. For those of us unable to garden, there are friendly neighbors and the farmer's market.
Sadly, my gardening days are over. I had earlier limited myself to tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers. My brother Jon maintains a large garden and has supplied us with new potatoes, squash, egg plants, cucumbers, peppers, and most important, tomatoes. I'm hoping his watermelons make a good crop.
