The only casualties so far are two of the cucumber plants shriveled up and died. I also planted another flat of strawberries in the strawberry bed. As soon as one ripens the kids eat them.

And our first casualty. We had our first banana pepper and one of our upside down tomato plants broke off in the wind and rain last night.
