My Spring Garden

Today’s post is a bit of an extension from yesterday’s post.


I mentioned that I had a couple of big decisions and outcomes I was facing. These dilemmas happened to coincide with unseasonably warm, dry weather. Nice, right? So I basically avoided social media and direct contact with the big decisions to be made and prepared and planted my backyard garden instead.


It was a good move on my part. By the time the nice weather ended, my garden was completely planned and most of it planted. And I was ready to face those decisions. And now I’m slowly getting back in front of the computer. In the meantime, I also get to watch my garden grow, and now that the rain is back, it is growing!

I got new strawberry plants this year and they are looking great. The grate is protecting them from birds and squirrels.


The lettuce I planted before we left on our trip to Chicago in April. The artichoke plant is super old. I think it would do better if we separated it, but I don’t know anyone who wants starts.

These beans are from my most recent planting. And did I mention that it was actually so hot that we opened our tiny pool early? Way early. But next time it’s in the 80s we will be ready!
