Your veggie garden looks perfect and so neatly done.<br /><br />We had a freak storm yesterday with straight line, 90 mph winds. People were killed and there was a lot of damage to trees (5 of mine got hit) and quite a few landed on houses and cars. We are safe, but another similar storm is expected tonight. <br /><br />2020 has been especially hard and I expect the locust to show up soon.
