Our World, The Last Bounty

The season's first hard freeze is expected tonight, so I gathered the last

 to 28 degrees F with a much lower wind chill! We are thankful that

cold snaps like this only last a couple of days!

Rattlesnake Beans

Our rattlesnake beans are beginning to bloom and mature. Soon, there'll be beans for supper every day! Rattlesnake beans are a type of green snapbean that become mottled with purple as they grow. Real rattlesnakes have nothing to do with their production.
