I have always wanted a garden, but haven't had a yard large enough to accommodate one until now. Goodness knows I had no idea what I was in for. I definitely had some ambition, and afterwards, I was so sore I felt like I went water-skiing for 2 hours. It literally hurt to roll over in bed. But, now I have a garden, and it looks like some things are still growing. Here it is, the day I did it. I am surprised I could lift my phone to get a picture.
Since then, I decided to use my whelks and conchs from shelling as a trim. I am most positive they will keep out the bunny rabbits, squirrels, our pet woodpecker, and whatever else lives in our backyard and vicinity. But, who cares, it looks kind of cool.

I need to weed, and pick up pine straw. I'll add that to my list of things to do today.
What are you planting this summer?
Cheers,
Margaret
