And with that, a whole list of things to do. Because our yard (as I've already mentioned) is hard as cement, my dream - my gardening vision if you will - is to create a container garden that defines all others. It will be full of....containers. And in these containers will be container plants - herbs, flowers, tall grasses, a small tree or bush perhaps? This garden will transform my wide open un-private, sun beaten deck into a garden oasis. Life sustaining vegetables will abound right outside my door; humming birds and butterflies will flock to feed on the nectar filled flowers cascading out of the many.... containers that adorn my private sanctuary.
So the blog muse has been absent in my life for the past several weeks. Perhaps I will now start to document a bit of what's going on around me. And this project may be a good start.
Step One: Buy Some Containers.
P.S. We visited this little guy yesterday - and plan to bring him home in about two weeks. He is more the size of a small hamster at this point - and will not grow to be much bigger than 8 pounds. I've never had such a small dog before but along with warmer weather, spring also tends to bring new love - love that defies the odds. So, here we go again.
