Take a walk with me

Every day the first thing I see when I come out my door is sweet little Mimi laying on the back porch.

...the bird bath rock garden that dad built

some echinacea...
and my first greenhouse habanero

From the back yard it's not far to the goats and the orchard...as we walk along the east side of the orchard you can see how dry our property gets in the summer when we don't water,

that dead tree on the hill used to be a play fort for the children. When I turn around I see the green grass of the orchard and the cool shade.

North side of the property we have a lovely shaded walk way.

Some things you just have to give up on...the photo of the 2 wild overgrown trees used to be the entrance to the rose garden.

Bonato tomahto is CLOSED....The ducks come waddling especially if it's breakfast time.

Now on to the food section of the garden. Purple snapbeans and parsley.

Interspersed with the veggies are snapdragons, cosmos, marigolds, nasturtiums, and many other flowers and herbs. I thought with our cool summer this year I wouldn't get much but I see that I've got some lovely melons on their way.

We've already picked a lot of cabbage, green beans, green onions, leeks, cucumbers, zucchini, acorn squash, tomatoes, peppers, swiss chard, kale, lettuce...did I miss anything? Praise be to Yahweh for His abundant provision!
