PART 2
My thanks to those of you who responded here or in e-mails about the beautiful work Lana has done. Today we continue.
THERE IS ALSO THE VEGETABLE GARDEN
You may recall from an earlier post that we dubbed a section of high ground that we tilled, Indiana. Flat and with good soil, it is a perfect place for the kind of veggie gardens we kept in the Mid-West.
These "book end," shots, from north and south, provide a low ground view of the raised bed garden. You can see the bird net hoops as a marker.
More about those steps in a future post.
Up in Indiana Lana has created other beds for lettuce,
parsley and other goodies.
Veteran readers may also recall the "original" raised bed
and Tomato Tent at the side of the house
We borrowed the tent idea from a veteran gardener and friend, Nan, last year. It is the only way to get tomatoes to ripen well this near the Pacific. The tent maintains warmth.
Lana is happy that after a couple of years in a pot
the Camilla is now blooming.
And for those of you who suggested I put down the camera
and do some work, well.....
Someone needs to report. And it is Lana who has the
green thumb. I'm her #1 fan.
See you down the trail.

ReplyDeleteGet behind the wheelbarrow, grab a rake, shovel or something. Mao had the right idea about guys like you. Re-education camps!
Well, when Fidel tried it in Cuba, he almost killed the cigar industry!
DeleteActually, some of that flatness came from my contribution to tilling.
It does look terrific Lana and tom. Doug
ReplyDeleteLovely work, Lana. Tell Tom that brain-work and touch-typing will only get one so far in life.
ReplyDeleteMaybe far enough to sit and enjoy the view from my study window?
