Our second success was picking a watermelon that was actually ripe. After the last fiasco, disaster, bomb, failure, or whatever you want to call it, this success felt good. So good that we ate almost half of the melon before we remembered to photograph it.
Now we know what is meant by the "Sweet taste of success".
There are four or five more melons in the garden and we hope that we will be wise (or lucky) enough to harvest them at the proper time. Another of our gardening "trials" this year was planting a second bed of watermelon a few weeks after the first planting sprouted. If the weather cooperates, we are hoping to prolong the melon season.
