Sorry I keep forgetting to post these! First the tree in the woods:
Then we where having problems with tilting:
And one I took this morning of it standing up:
Oh and Butterscotch decided to "help" us find a tree, on my sister:
and running around:
We just got back from cutting our Christmas tree down from the back of our property. Pictures to come later of it both alive and when it's decorated, but currently it is setting on the porch waiting to be trimmed.
I've got two, the first is mostly my animals and garden:

Okay I just went and weighed mine, here is the weight in pounds, I gave them numbers so it's easier to talk about them:
1- 6.5
2- 4.2
3- 3.4
4- 2.5
5- 4
6- 3.8
7- 3
8- 5.4
9- 2.4
10- 3.8
11- 1
12- 1.2 (the one with the chicken bite)
Thanks! I had two large sunflower heads but the other one grew mold :( Hopefully I can dry this one out so to save some seeds and give the chickens a treat this winter.
I have a bottle gourd with similar damage to it, the one I posted early on the thread with the huge holes in it rotted and...
Here is my major harvest, I need to weigh but here are my pumpkins mixed in with everything else:
This one the chickens had a taste of:
This bright orange pumpkin I harvested last week, next to it is my only watermelon:
What vegetables or types aren't you growing next year and why?
I'm not going to be growing Chocolate Strips (type of tomatoes) they don't produce well and the few they did went bad very fast. We will see what else doesn't make the list when I do my big and of the year harvest.
I don't think I'm going to win anything, I'm getting a lot of fairly small pumpkins off my volunteers two of which are already turning orange. And I think all my other pumpkins got wiped out by Colorado beetles and squash beetles. The one that had the huge wounds from the chicken died and...
Today's harvest (the big green things are 8-ball squash), there was a couple more tomatoes but they where rotting/ had a lot of damage and went to the chickens, I have a couple of mortgage lifters that should be ready soon as well:
My harvest from two days ago and I have more to harvest. The large ones are the chocolate strips, 2 small round ones Riesentraube , and the others the hybrid/hybrid cross/volunteer:
And I've got more to harvest today.
Thanks everyone! I've been smashing them the last few days and will keep it up. Between these guys and the Colorado beetles I swear the world is conspiring against my vining plants.
