The End of A Season

The end of one season is tangled with the beginning of another.  I don’t ever really put down my trowel and walk away from the garden.  But there are times when I do a lot less that could be considered gardening.  Now with my Hippy Hot Hut (greenhouse) the lines could become blurred even more.  … Continue reading »

Anticipation

 Ever since I chose the theme for the Header Challenge this week my brain has been singing this song.  ‘Cept that it changes it up to the lyrics that my childhood and young adult brain could handle, no matter how many times I was corrected or realized that it didn’t go.  Because I wanted to sing, … Continue reading »

This Is Quirky, But I Think…

You might enjoy this.  Check it out.  I’ll even use big pictures so you can see it better.

How Does My Garden Grow?

Whew, boy howdy, this is not as easy an assignment as it would appear.  Fishing_Guy, you must be joking, right?  I’m sure that Mac, Darla, Gail’s Man, can come up with wonderful concise but all encompassing pictures and quickly decide which shot says it all, but I’m supposed to put it all in one picture?  What makes … Continue reading »
