The Garden Bug

^

Well now let me see... there are so many things to say... Where would I begin? How about at the beginning... hahah!!! My Mom Says if I left me figure in the the dirt too long it would sprout. Well, I don't know about that... I have always like to dig and plant "stuff". I enjoy experimenting with things... Like keeping seeds from a melon or squash and planting it the next year... sometimes you are quite surprised at what may appear! Like 3 years ago when I kept the seeds from a wonderful Butternut Quash and ended up the next summer with about 200 quash that my father in law affectionately named "elephant dicks"... which might have well been for their size and shape, LOL!!! Or dig up what I thought was cantaloupe plants out of the compost pile this past spring, and now we have an abundance of Acorn squash... Oh well... it's all good.

I planted a couple mini pumpkins seeds this year that I save from last year and I gave away the first few one that came ripe... and than, all the other ones did not make it for one reason or another... got too ripe and rotted or something dumb like that. Also, I planted some cheery tomatoes last year and decided I did not want any this year... and about a dozen or so plants came up volunteer... guess what they all are? You got it... cheery tomatoes... Life is funny. and I enjoy it's adventures... I hope you do too... like the song says, if you have the chance to dance, DANCE!!! Don't sit it out...

I also had the joy of putting in some flower beds here in our home in Washington... I have taken a few shots here and there... Hope you take the time to smell the flowers in your world. Life is way to short not too! Be Happy! Bloom Where you are planted and relax! God is in control. It is His garden enjoy it while you are here!
