It was a beautiful day. Clouds came and went and so it was great for transplanting. I am trying to get the rest of the plants I have started into soil so I don't have to take care of them in planters anymore. I also transplanted Delicata winter squash. I put a plant and two seeds in five holes.

15 Delicatas should be more than enough for over the winter. The onions were coming up in the beds where I thinned them to plant individually outside. I have Walla Wallas, red and white sweet Spanish. I did not attempt hard yellow onions this year as it is already too late to get them to finish up. I still want to plant some more potatoes and I read an article about planting late potatoes last year, so I know there is still time. I hope I still have some seed potatoes that haven't totally shriveled up, but I did look into it yet. I put a few dill plants in with the onions for pickle making eventually.
