Steady Gentle Rain

Lovely.  Yesterday we got some more weeding done, and Jeff prepped the ground for the 9 (count them, NINE) grape plants he bought at Menard's.  They'll get in the ground next week, perhaps.  But grapes do grow in Nebraska -- lots of vineyards springing up -- and as long as we keep the goats away, some of them will survive!

On the inside the house front, my thyme seeds have sprouted.  They are SO TINY.  How does anything that small get a start out in the great outdoors?  The parsley seedlings are gangly but are getting their first real leaves, so that's progress.  And the peppers are waiting patiently for after this rainy period to get into the ground.

And last night I found a fat packet of carrot seeds.  Where shall I put them?  They're not in the plan!
