Week 19 - The Garden Did Well While We Were Gone

I'm still catching up on things since we got back from Nova Scotia, so I had my assistant, Smart Jr., take the garden pics again this week.  Dude, I think she does a better job than me!   Check out the weekly garden updates here.

When we pulled into the driveway at 2am yesterday I was so happy with what I saw... the yard looked great.  I hadn't missed it while we were gone {I was taking a true vacation from all the work} but I was so happy to see it when I got out of the car.  The night was still and quiet and I could see how much everything had grown in the moonlit garden.

Considering we don't have any type of sprinkler system, just a few rain barrels 
and soaker hoses, everything had done really well.  The one casualty... a hosta bit 
the dust thanks to our vole population.  Voles!  Boo!!! 


Here are the rest of Smart Jr.'s pics...











 

Thanks for stopping by.  You rock!  Visit again soon,

    1. Right!? I don't think I'll be taking any more pics myself, just let her do it! I've been wanting to sign her up for some photography and photo editing classes as well. She'll be unstoppable. You're welcome to get lost in my yard any day!! ;)
