almost everything is in the ground...

so: The field (or garden...it's a garden when you think about it - it's a field when you're out there working(!) is almost completely planted. Will has fretted over the design for this season, making sure there was enough room for everything that need a row.
He then proceeded to almost kill himself by spending forty kabillion hours out there...every single speck of free time when there was also daylight.
And, like I said - almost everything is in the ground at this point.
So, the question is... what the heck is this?or this??
can you imagine what the setup looked like in the beginning?
How many flats of plants we actually seeded and how many teeny tiny plants have been carefully set, one by one, into the ground?
Some of these are 'remainders' and some signify the final push of planting.
I haven't been completely absent for the big push, but cannot fully engage until the semester is virtually over (this week -yea).
So let's hear it for the one who does the heavy lifting (and I mean that literally).
Look to be a very good season...IF we get some rain in the near future. Otherwise, it's out with the pump and big hoses. I personally would like to see the pond remain untouched for a little longer - but we'll do whatever is necessary.
