50's nights and mid-70's days. We are putting out the warm season veggies on the heels of the cool ones. We thinned chard, kale, beet greens, collards and two types mustards for a sautee of mixed greens last night. We will have baby bibbs, beet greens and arugula tonight. So exciting to step back and watch it all happen!

We have not had rain in ten days. Our best chance is 50% tonight. Thank goodness for a spring that never runs dry even though I've manged to run the cistern dry a bunch :). Then DH has to crawl around under the house to change filters. We are in year three of a severe drought. There are bans on outdoor watering with public water throughout the state.

The iris don't seem to mind the drought...
