Thank you for all the wonderful pictures and ideas! There are blessings & challenges to "sharing" a love of gardening! I so wish there was someone in MY family besides me that loved the dirt.
Lee Anne,
Thanks for the info - I love tall phlox and will be using that combination in my garden this year. I ordered tons of white David phlox and will use the red bee balm to circle the phlox. Feverfew is now also on my new plant list. Stunning photos and great garden ideas.
I also wish there was another garden buddy in my family - you are very lucky to have a shovel man too.
Your like my family back in 73 we moved from city to the sticks, no plumming , built our cabin and grew a garden, and learned a whole lot of things that you just got to do to get the full impact of. Going out to the outhouse in knee deep snow and wrapping bricks in newspaper that have been heated on top of the wood stove to keep your toes nice and toasty while we slept. Taking baths in a stock tank from water haul from the pond. Everyday was exciting with new challenges. I'm glad I had part of that life. oh and I'm still living in the sticks : )
Your story brought back memories and I do thank you.
I also remember, vividly, the walk to the outhouse in knee deep snow. Heating the water on the wood stove to wash or do dishes. Washing my hair in water right out of the rain barrel. I really miss that old cabin.
Everybody should experience that way of living at least once in their lives.
Thank you for inviting us into your personal space and
story! I have been seeing our postings along, and now I
know more about who is speaking. I love your story and
your beautiful gardens!!
