Reed Family

Look at my sisters family. What a beautiful picture. It looks so pretty on the beach. Good going sister.

Garden is going crazy now. I had to water for a while last night. The weather is cooling down at night so I'm hoping the lettuce and spinach will make it.

The pumpkins, cucs, zucchini and melon seeds made it and one tiny leaf is up.

I'll take the camera over today and document the progress.

Have to go - write more later.

Thanks

Garden - Beautiful Herbs

Look at these Herbs! The chives are beautiful. I love the color of them. Right now - all of these came back on there own from last year. Even the flat leaf parsley and I was surprised by that. So anyways, currently in the wheel is Chives, Flat Leaf Parsley, Tarragon, Golden Marjoram, Tri Color Sage, Green Sage, French Thyme, Chamomile and Oregano.

I'll plant some basil, cardamon and curly parsley once it warms.


It was so peaceful there today. We are having a beautiful day here in Naperville so I spend a couple hours weeding and such. Spinach, Lettuce and some baby radishes. They are the cutest. I sprinkled dried blood (You can buy it called "Blood Meal") to keep the rabbits out. It works! They don't like the smell and leave the little plants alone.

This is just one side of the trellis. The clematis are getting very long and it has quite a few flower buds. I can't wait until they bloom.

That's it for today. I got back from a long work week in Vegas yesterday and need to just veg and watch a movie on TV.

Thanks for peeking in my garden.
