First Swim of the Season

Yippee....the water is warm enough to swim (still a little chiller than I like) but good enough to jump in!!! I had a fun swim with Mom and Dad this evening. Summer is a GREAT time of year. We have had very warm temperatures.... perfect for the new garden and for swimming!!

THE FAMILY GARDEN

"The Fence that makes Good Neighbors needs

a Gate to make Good Friends"

Our family decided last year that we would enjoy having our own family garden. Since Dad is retired, it just seemed like the right thing to do. It has been a big project .... clearing the land....preparing the soil..... fencing the area to keep out our little bunny friends.....

We planted our favorites......Squash, Pumpkins, Cukes, Green Beans, Cabbage, Tomatoes, Peppers, Garlic (received from our good friends), Cilantro, Basil, Dill, Asparagus and a few cut flower!!



THIS IS OUR GOAL












The next posting is a slide-show of the process over the last year!!! What a fun family project!!
