Decided to dig a few hills to see the tater crop. Looks good to me!

Ya figured imgur out!
... alone in distant woods or fields, in unpretending sproutlands or pastures tracked by rabbits, even in a bleak and, to most, cheerless day .... .  I suppose that this value, in my case, is equivalent to what others get by churchgoing & prayer.  Hank Thoreau, 1857

A few strange things this year. Only one pair of potato bugs early. No frost last winter? :)
Volunteer kale, I think, killed my tater plants while I was away for two weeks. :'(
Tomatoes without something unexpected look real good. ;D Lopes are great. :D :D I must deter skunk somehow. :-M :-M
A couple bunnies and a few deer tracks. ??? A few clipped blossoms etc. I think I will try a radio AM talk show at night
iF I get attacked. If nothing else the fauna will be fat and know all about the POTUS. >:D

The woods are my garden as well, I walk a 3 mile trail through them 3 times a week. I have been eating blackberries, watching the green muscadines develop and keeping tabs on a pretty good paw-paw crop down by the river.

Most of the walkers are city folk that will walk over a bounty of muscadines and paw-paws on the ground and not have a clue what they are.

I planted two pawpaws years ago. Now they are copses of pawpaw that bloom every spring but I've never seen fruit. I've heard that blow flies are their pollinators but I can't make myself go out looking for road kill to assist...plus my new dog would love it if I put roadkill under them.
