Greetings All!

I was a very bad girl today.

I took the day from work and tried to get some work done in the garden.

I finally tooks some picture to share with all of you.

My little garden in on about a 6th of an acre. It's a meditaton garden or will be one some day.

I started the summer before last with grass and the awful hedges that you'll see at the sides. We tilled out the maze, fertilized and began planting. A month later we discovered that the stuff we thought was crab grass was quack grass. Quack will start a new weed from an inch of root: and we had tilled the stuff. And added compost. Good Grief.

So we spent much of the first years battling quack from hell.

Last year was a little better. More stuff went in, Here is what it all looked like today.

This is the view from my front door. I still have the wires, but it's a lot better!
