Great pics... I really miss the warmer climate in Tucson... I lived at Orange Grove for 25years them moved to Oro Valley ... a bit cooler there, then out here in the same valley as ARBICO ... It is the greatest change so far.. My bush squash are just now starting to produce and it is because I start them in the greenhouse to save a few weeks... I feel for you with the gardens too close... it makes it hard to save some seeds as well as the bugs that fly over the fences.... Out here it's very hard to get an early crop of tomatoes as the nights are very cold here then now when the nights start to get above 55deg the days start hitting the 90's..
Last week I lost a couple of okra sprouts a couple of potatoes and some leaves on one of the squash..the temp was supposed to be in the upper 30's, but not here.
