Theives

A couple of days ago I went out to the garden to pick a mush melon. Only two melons have grown on the vine this summer so I was really excited about eating it! So, anyway, I went out to pick our melon for us to eat with lunch. When I get out there the one that should have been ready to pick was gone.... There was no sign of it... not even a sign that it has ever been there. The smaller one had bites taken out of it... Both of our melons were unable to be eaten by us.

This is not the first time this has happened, however. Every piece of corn was eaten out of our garden. One day we went out and there was a line of corn pieces leading to the woods behind the house. Some had even been shucked and eaten like humans eat the corn.

This gardening thing has been really fun and I feel that we have learned a lot.... Next year we need a fence!!!!
