This Year's Garden--A Work in Progress

A corner of the log room, and the new stone wall under the porch are just visible here. The deck still doesn't have a rail, although we bought the lumber to do it--so does that count? Too busy on other projects, but that one is next.

The herb garden, complete with wire to ward off digging dogs--and a mirror for the evil spirits!

It's been a rough year for gardening. Too cold, too wet, too hot, too dry--no happy medium of weather to please a gardener or the plants.


The sundial was a gift from my oldest son at least 10 years ago. Still keeping time, and no batteries needed.


Our "Lady of the Garden"--this small sculpture was bought at the libray's book sale about 8 years ago, I think. She gazes down at a small pool of water, when I remember to fill it. The miniature roses around her stone perch did not fare well this winter, and have not had a single bloom so far this year.

  2. Thanks, Jaime! We need rain so badly, I think I'll need to replant with cacti if we don't get a good drenching soon.
