The garden is planted. Cucumbers, dill, garlic, potatoes, tomatoes, jalapeño peppers, onions, leaf lettuce, melons, pumpkins, yellow sweet corn, red sweet corn, sugar snap peas, spaghetti squash and buttercup squash. The last one I had to get by special request from Montana via Alice. They don't sell buttercup squash here. Four strawberry plants are planted up by the house next to some flowers I put in. A huge tire in sitting close by the porch and my little flower garden, waiting for play sand to fill it. An 18 inch deep wading pool is taking up half of my back porch. Austin mowed the lawn today using the riding mower and C put concrete in around the septic system sprinklers. I followed them home from the mils today, C on the big blue tractor and Austin on the riding mower, about a mile on the main road. Our ditches are level now and he used the tractor to get the massive tire off the trailer. Seriously, this thing is huge.
My herbal and flower garden has not gone in yet. I haven't figured out where I want it yet, and I am not too sure right now where my herb seeds are. Oops. I really want to get my lavender planted. I have been neglecting my spiritual studies, too. I really need to start reading and doing my exercises, but I keep putting it off. I guess it is the same with every belief system, isn't it?

Wow! That's a lot of work. I'm jealous that you have space for a real veggie garden!
Pictures soon?

Nice work, lots but nice :)
Yes do have pictures when it starts filling in at least!
Gardening is a lot of work. I'm glad you have the energy.
I am almost finished w/your quilt. I just put the batting on and I have to pin it, tie it, and then put the binding all around. I think it came out better than my "Trip around the world Quilt." I made yours reversible, one side is a rail quilt and the bottom is different strips of color, I almost like the bottom better than the top. Did Chantz tell you I wanted to come down there w/him. I am just afraid of having an anxiety attack.
love mom
Wow, I'm impressed! I have a black thumb. Plants cower before me.
candy- space? we have a 2 acre lot. makes for some massive mowing.

That is so cool that you have a garden! I couldn't do one either. I definitely do not have a green thumb. lol It sounds like you have a lot of good stuff planted too! Yumm-o! :-)
