The Garden cometh!






















Meet Charles! Charles works with Paul and he has a tractor, amongst other heavy machinery, of course! Paul & Charles barter back and forth with "helping hands" and ended up over here with the ability, time and energy to till us up a space for a garden (for food) ... so ... today was dedicated to getting that space ready. Although today isn't a good day for planting (according to the Farmer's Almanac), the dirt is ready ... so tomorrow and next weekend will be deemed "planting" days at the Glover's ... and in a couple of months we hope to reap whatever we've sewn!!! We will, of course be keeping you posted on this endeavor. So far, it's been a great project. And of course, Paul is metal detecting before we plant just to make sure everything is safe ... and there is no metal hazard in our garden! We have found old pottery pieces, many glass pieces which have come from mason jars and jelly jars over the years ... and a couple of pennies! Will keep you informed if Paul comes across that big stack gold bars we're looking for in the back yard! ;-) Hope your 4th of July was a safe and happy one and your weekend this weekend is fun ... and hopefully relaxing. There is a goat outside "hollering" his guts out ... best go check on things. Until next time ... Paul & Cheri
p.s. I seem to like sideways pictures these days ... please adjust your viewing! Thanks!
