     i have sprouts coming up from the beans i planted   
   on the 3rd.  :)   
      
     not many chipmunks running around so perhaps i can   
   keep most of these from being eaten as they sprout   
   and get plants and then beans from them.   
      
     this year i'm growing a lot of fresh eating bean   
   varieties so we should have way more than we'll need   
   of both wax and green beans.  most of these are   
   new varieties to me so it will be fun to see which   
   of them we like the most.   
      
     as planting goes along i have only three gardens   
   remaining inside the fenced area to plant.  one of   
   them i hope i can finish this evening.  there's a   
   killdeer nesting right next to it so i may take   
   my ear muffs out there to take her down a few   
   decibles.  she's tame enough that i can get close   
   to her, but i know she won't like it if i'm   
   moving in the garden right next to her.   
      
     the quicker gardens and plantings are those where   
   i'm not moving the worm farm buckets out to use in   
   the gardens.  the last two gardens to be done will   
   involve me using the last five buckets up and then   
   i can restart them again.  i also have to work   
   around the tulips finishing up in those gardens so   
   that takes a bit more time.  still i should meet my   
   goal of having all the gardens inside the fenced   
   area planted by the end of this weekend.  *whew*
