Posted on Friday, June 21, 2024 by Paul

We woke up before 6:00 am and walked the garden.  The poor trellis is currently stuck playing referee between the tomatoes and the green beans. It’s like the vegetable equivalent of a high-stakes wrestling match! The trellises are wonderful! Mary collected … Continue reading →

A Busy Day Doing Nothing!

Posted on Tuesday, June 18, 2024 by Paul
