We walked. We were early!
Hopefully this will set a new trend for the year.
I didn't cry. I'll miss them, but I know independence is a gift.
Last year, I made some effort (not thoroughly successful) to capture state-of-the-garden pictures every month, including panoramas stitched together on Photoshop, in order to get the whole view of what's happening. So here's a little recap of the garden in 2023! early March April May June August It appears that I missed July, and either didn't take or didn't save this project in September, although we didn't have a killing frost very late into the season - we were still harvesting a few things in October. As much as I loved the lettuce that was growing in the tunnel, and getting an early start on a few things, I'm not a fan of plastic anywhere, especially in my garden, so I am looking at options - cold boxes with old windows, etc. I'm planning to start my 2024 garden this month - pea planting, planning, and seed starting in March! What are you planting?
Sometimes we confuse "independence"
ReplyDeletewith "interdependence." The latter, it seems to me, is a healthy sense of community and the need we all have for others to help us along the journey and the joy we have in friends and family.
Independence, as much as it is held up as an ideal (especially for Americans) really tends to much towards self.
Just a thought
All sincere comments are appreciated.
ReplyDeleteI used the correct word in the context that I meant to, to the best of my knowledge, and I am going to let it stand.
Perhaps you would like to start your own blog!
Oh, they look so cute...and little! It's hard to believe they are old enough to both be going to school. How exciting for Nico to begin the journey. I just received a letter from Metro claiming to be my "alma mater" and it's hard to believe I'm done. Well, at least for now. :)
