The nearby grocery store is remodeling.  This is the last area, so here is a before.  They're painting the walls and ceiling white, which we are not impressed with.  It reminds me of what stores looked like in the 80s.  We liked this better.

We worked on tomatoes today.  I got 12 more quarts of spaghetti sauce.

The deer ate my sunflowers too.  I've got 1 1/2 sunflowers left.

I made some salsa from the tomatoes and peppers.

Some of the corn was ready today.  Unfortunately, about a third or so of it was eaten by deer.  We'll have to fence it in next year or plant twice as much.

We went to a mini-golf course today.

We visited Lanterman's Mill in Youngstown.  It's a restored grist mill.  The water wheel is on the lowest level, inside the building, and was very interesting to watch.

More zucchini relish.  It only used up 2 zucchinis though.

I've got two hummingbird feeders yet they will fight over one of them.
