A friend of mine told me he thought that this was a watermelon plant. It was sold to me as an acorn squash. None of that matters now, anyway. Something made off with it in the night. Broke it right off the vine, and made off with it. With nary a trace.
I wonder...if whatever ate it, ate it there...or did it take it somewhere else to savor it? It was getting pretty big, so what was big enough to carry it off? Did they roll it away? At least that is something I could 'see' happening. Especially if it were a rabbit that made off with my watermelon/squash.
That too, is something that doesn't matter. There is no way to know for sure. So the mystery fruit was eaten by the mystery creature. What a mystery!
Another thing that happened was I found a big black cat in my garden this morning. I scared it out with the garden hose as I was watering. Actually, it scared me, too.
HE...was so scared, he jumped the fence to the acre to the West, and kept running full bore across the two acres...and down the street. As fast as he could. He was practically to the street before the dogs even noticed. Then they were all frantic cause they missed it. Too funny!
This morning, I also replanted some more yellow beans. I have the next few days off my job...so now I will try to catch up with my planting, and writing, and taking pictures, and baking. I have lots of zucchini bread to make.
Today, I also secured my booth at the Duck Races in Pearblossom for Sunday, October 3rd. It will be my 3rd Duck Race. Hope to see everyone there!
So...I'll be back soon.....Love...Trish
