Getting ready to plant some more tomatoes onions, corn and squash. My butterbeans seems to have not made it for some reason, so may try to do them again.

RELIGION IS LIKE A PENIS
Its fine to have one,
Its fine to be proud of it,
But please dont whip it out in public and start waving it around,
And PLEASE dont try to force it down my children's throats.
An armed society is a polite society. Manners are good when one may have to back up his acts with his life.
We've had so much rain that even though the raised beds drain better than the yard, the clouds and saturation has caused the tomatoes to get some yellow leaves, and they're really not growing well at all. I've got to feed everything again, I didn't till in dolomite like I knew I should, so I'll get that taken care of, otherwise it's really good soil, so it's gotta be the lack of sun, heat and the water. The good news is, my onions are doing well, I pulled about a dozen today and they're awesome, on average they're around baseball sized. I've also finished making 3 global buckets, and have several more to make. I've made cedar boxes to go around them since you can see them from the street. They sit on a wall and I don't like the look of lowes buckets anyway.
Common sense is so rare these days, it should be re-classified as a super power.
Lil'Bravo and I shot today, about 150 on the .40 (ea) and 120 on the AK (ea). I practiced some 1and1 drills, mag changes, did my draw to fire (4 step) drill going slow-mo to focus on basics. Lil'Bravo has a horrible flinching problem.. she was blaming the grips, etc.. I stacked her a 10 rnd mag with 3 snap caps, sure enough the beast shows it's self. I had her dry fire for a few minutes and then come back to live fire, sure enough.... she rang steel every time.
We have a match this coming Sat (USPSA, her first my second)... I told her to dry fire for 30 min each day and she should be good.
I welcome any further advice. Im going to also run her with dual ears next live fire, ear plugs + ear muffs, she might be sonic sensitive.

Took my SR1911 and G42 to the range for the first time.
Amazingly the recoil is not that bad from either.
decided to buy some night sights for the G42
They say that the cockroaches will be the last creature alive on this earth.
I intend on being the last person alive still stomping cockroaches.
Finished another 2 global buckets and their cedar surrounds. Now I've got another 5 maters planted and I'm waiting for it to quit raining daily and nightly so I can get the other 16 tomatoes planted in the raised beds. Another 5 global buckets are in the works for later this week as well.

Completed all but 2 5gallon buckets in my garden build. The build contains 40 5 gallon buckets and each contains a different vegetable or herb. Much thought has gone into this build since I am attempting a high output for the space that it occupies. If this follows through next year the items that will need to be invested into this system are seeds, egg shells, compost, water and my time. I will also set up another PVC greenhouse in my tiny backyard. that will require ~$70 of an investment.
This garden build should provide an 8 month growing period a gain of 2 months.
My Aquaponics system is also tiny but I have run 4 crops on it. Currently I am restarting for crop #5. The adult tilapia are ~ 12"-14" in size. The next phase is to begin farming the fish.

I got most of my garden in this weekend, and hopefully be able to 'finish' tonight. Although finish is subjective and I'll probably continue adding things for another month or more.

If you're going to fight, then fight like you're the third monkey on the ramp into Noah's arc... and brother, it's starting to rain.
