Well, it's started to get hot. Trying to scrape paint of siding has seemed a whole lot less appealing, but I've still tried to start doing something. I took a good look at the existing deck frame and realized it was worse than I thought. With the rusty nails, it was barely holding together, so I figured I should just start dismantling it and start over. Thus the work begins...

Also been tending to the garden, or whatever can be called a garden. Got a tumbler for composting, and after my late start of planting veg the end of May, the Potatoes especially have really taken off.

On the garage side, the hops and tomatoes have also been growing well. The hops reached the end of the lattice, so I drove some 1x2 furring strips into the ground along with some twine and attached them to the lattice to give the hops more room to grow. No hops flowers so far. I keep checking, but perhaps it won't flower the first year after it's been replanted.
