It says The Children's Garden. That was the name of my daycare/preschool and it was made by one of my preschoolers. Mary

I finally pulled a small persimmon tree. Got tired of the squirrels eating every single one. Real estate is just too expensive to have around lol. The good thing is I moved this trough with my blueberries In its place which freed up space for my growing small fig collection haha. Mary

Saw some color on our walk today.

The only place I have with full sun is in my front yard. I'll look for it in the spring. Mary

Welcome from the San Francisco bay area. I'm in the east bay which is warmer and can garden year round. But usually my fall garden is a little smaller to I can take a little break. You used your downtime so wisely. Glad you were able to learn as much as you could. That's what I'm doing with...

You are starting peppers and tomatoes so early. When will you transplant them into the ground? Mary

I'm in the San Francisco bay area so our winters are mild and even my maples don't turn that beautiful color that yours does. Mary

Beautiful fall foliage. Fall is my favorite season and that's why I got married in October. Just celebrated our 45th. Mary

Yes it is! On our way back from our cabin last week I stopped and bought 25 for $10 which was a descent price. So I've been eating them every day and just love them. I got a message yesterday from a woman here who gave me some last year asking me if I wanted some. You bet I do and these are...

Steve. we found bones last year and it might have been a child's! Well at least that's what we thought at then time. Our house being a small Victorian over 100 years old who knows. Ok, maybe it was a dog's. I kept them for a while but maybe I threw them away now. I'll see if I have a...

I had my husband take out a small persimmon tree. Though I love persimmons I finally got tired of the squirrels getting every single one of them. This year I tried clam shells on a couple of them but of course you can't possibly put one on every persimmon. Real Estate is just too valuable...

I think I saw one of the pics before. Does it come back from seed or the plant? Do you know the name or variety of it? If you don't your penance is to mail be a couple of plants in an envelope. Mary

Flowerbug, I remember that beautiful creeping thyme you have cause it's Fushia my favorite color. Mary

Bay, have you heard of Flower Mound, Tx? MY son's hopefully future in laws were visiting and we got to meet them. Very nice folks and live in Flower Mound. She said Dallas Fort Worth airport is 40 minutes from them and I don't remember the name of the other airport that is 15 minutes from...

I might keep my eyes out for cheap fares if there's still such a thing. LOL Mary

Steve. ginger tea can be quite spicy if you make it too strong. I had bought some at a tea shop and it was in very small granular but they stopped selling it. Bought a big bag of dried pieces from Chinatown but I have to cut them up smaller so that the water can infuse them better. It's kind...

With my acid reflux I no longer drink coffee. Now I drink ginger, lavender, or chamomille tea. It has to be hot and I usually microwave it once or twice cause it cools off too much for my tastes. Mary

Hi Bay, I've been without a desktop and phone screen is too small to be on here. But I'm back and have caught up with all your hard work and projects. Never knew you had wild boars on your property. It's nice to have all that free meat and good thing you have the skills to process them. You...

Oh darn Bay you had such a good group of lambs. Hope it bets better from here on out. Mary

Hi Steve, we are having a heat wave! 90* for a few days and today finally to 79*. Been on a jury trial so have neglected my garden. Did manage to prune 3 of my fruit trees one evening when it was cool. But I still have to deadhead most of my perennials. Mary
