As we speak I'm on a computer in our local library typing away like a mad-woman...majorly suffering from withdrawals here. Something similar to a severe lack of chocolate but in my case it's a computer screen...an actually huge, very LARGE computer screen...that I'm quite positive can be seen from across the street. Don't believe me? Someone just cruised out of the thrift store over there waved...and corrected my spelling. Seriously! OK, excuse me, that was the librarian.
So what have ya'll been up to?? Gotten some emails and of course I always love to hear from you anytime. We're putting in a much larger garden this season and also trying some charcoal amended soil that seems to be working really well. We're doing a series of raised beds with wood chips along the paths. This summer we're concentrating more on getting the infrastructure in place...as much as I was hoping to get more planted. Ya know how it goes, never get as much done as you hope for! But the squash and tomatoes are going nuts. I also put in a separate herb garden that's really lovely right now...especially the basil! Let's see, there's marjoram (smells heavenly!), sage, thyme, rosemary, Italian parsley, dill, some shallots (may need to be transplanted), chives...interspersed with geraniums, daisies, and phlox. Gorgeous? I'm lovin' it...totally!
I do have some photos/videos loaded on iTookThisOnmyPhone....if you'd like to peruse a bit of our summer fun!
