Onions

Here they are, tops flopped over.  Initially I thought it was the result of dogs running through the garden, but closer examination showed that they were declaring themselves ready to be pulled.
Here is about half the crop, I think.  The rest are still in the ground -- they might grow another week, I guess. The second photo shows them "drying" on the mulch of the sweet potato row.  Drying in quotes because we had another inch of rain last night! I'll have to move them into the basement soon.  The trampoline was a great onion-dryer, but Corbie the cow now owns it, and she would eat them, I'm sure.  Sheep did last year!
