water garden

Does multitasking work? ......well, not if you forget you turned on a soaker hose in your raised bed garden.  Eleven hours later, I discovered my mistake.  Hopefully, not too much damage done, with the exception of me single-handedly trying to deplete our region's water supply during a drought. I felt really bad about the whole thing.  One of the tomato's (Cherokee Purple) fell completely over and almost out of the bed, but appears to be a good as new with a few stakes to hold up the cage.  Also, I have been fighting powdery mildew on the squash and this probably did not help my cause on that front.  The best part to this story is 24 hours later it actually rained.  

On a side note - my mom gave me the good idea to post the high / low temps at the bottom of each entry - so here we go:  71 / 66.
