Garden: Phase II

Call me silly, but I'm seriously excited about my two new fruit trees.  My dad planted semi-dwarf peach trees in our side yard.  In case you're curious (and even if you're not)- this kind of peach tree cross-pollinates itself and bares fruit a lot quicker than your normal peach tree.  In fact, these trees are a little bigger, so we may have peaches as early as next summer.  Wahoo!
Meanwhile, we planted zucchini and 3 different types of tomatoes.  We need to get some more top soil and wait for it to dry out a little bit more around here, and then we'll finish off our little garden with some herbs (basil, cilantro & oregano), potatoes and green beans.  We'll see how things turn out the first try.  The first year is always a little iffy with a garden.
