    Snap beans are going good, but I suspect that the lack of rain fall might be stunting their growth a little bit. If we get some rain, hopefully we will be getting snap beans in the next couple of weeks.

    Potatoes are tall and look healthy. If we get some rain, I would like to spread some fertilizer along the rows and pull some more dirt up around the plants.

    Corn is about 6 - 12 inches tall.

    Cucumbers are about 2 inches tall.

    Tomatoes are doing good, but that might be from me watering them everyday. The patio tomatoes were the first ones to get tomatoes, the grape tomatoes second, and the big beef tomatoes have blooms, but no tomatoes.

    Everything is so dry here. Last week, the weather guy on the news said we are about 4 inches short on rain fall. If this keeps up, this will be one of the driest springs in south east texas history.
