finished planting the ex-strawberry patch and then weeded other gardens and pathways until i was tired enough to call it good for the day. simple day and peaceful and nice outside. what helps a lot with the peaceful is that the grackles are gone - they've had their babies and left. :) the...

rains just starting to get here. good timing. :)

some kind of daisy?

good luck! deer often eat those here, do you have deer around?

it can make you stretch your noodle to use some new words or to even make up others... hmm, what would it be for something new and entertaining? new? smootchual. when you meet someone new and the feeling is mutual and you end up smooching... note that both duckduckgo and google come up with...

Sunday i almost finished planting the newest bean garden (which is the ex strawberry patch). i'd grown beans in this garden before, but it has been some years since then. it was overdue for renovation as the strawberry plants were old and weeding it was getting to be very time consuming so i...

with the forecast for evening rains i decided to get back out there and not only get ready for planting but to actually get some bean seeds in that garden. i didn't finish planting the whole thing and don't particularly like the layout i ended up with but it will have to do. what is left is...

yes!

ok, so it will be there for some chat program to read it and digest it and spit it back out at people (who are reading that instead)...

if you have just a little grass i would remove it because once it gets going it really gets a lot harder to remove. sod busting is a PITA, the best way of dealing with sod so far has been to dig a deep enough hole that you can bury it and still plant what you want on top and put few layers of...

i guess some people really want instant... i think i mentioned before that a boss i had would drink coffee before going to bed because he said it helped him get up in the morning.

my first thought on seeing it was WAF (Wierd A$$ Flower)... :) pretty, but strange.

almost done with turning the ex-strawberry patch so i should be able to get it ready to plant later today and plant it tomorrow morning. digging holes and burying things is a lot faster than weeding and i like that i'm not wasting valuable organic materials and also the energy from the sun that...

sadly we can no longer edit older posts so i can't go back and change that, but if you remove the end part of that link the beginning part will still take you to their home page.

got going on the next garden for bean planting and made progress but it will likely be tomorrow to finish getting it turned under again and then plant on Monday.

groundhog 2 made the mistake of making a noise when i dumped a bucket of weeds on the weed pile and then it ran along the fence trying to find a way out, but i didn't have my air rifle with me so i had to come back to the house and then go back out and it did not get away. they are not very...

with the dam removals and restoration of the river banks with wildlowers, native grasses and trees it already looks much nicer and the salmon have already found their way.
