Summer is gone!

Where did it go? Well, a lot of time went to developing this blog and another one plus a wiki. Not being handy at technology, I've invested some hundreds (I fear more!) of hours in this endeavor. Nevertheless, it is gratifying to know that it is possible to do it without spending any money or taking classes.

After returning from Canada, there was lots of yardwork to do as our newly hired gardener had failed to come during our absence. Consequently, when S. did come to work on our yard, he came with a helper and proceeded to uproot hundreds of weeds and other plants. We lost perhaps a quarter of our plantscape which was painful to see.

Now a few months later, our yard is looking nice, if sparsely planted. As Mickey says, it's an endless creation. Our yard is enormous, so we have lots of space to plant yet, and lots of waiting for our vegetation to reach mature size.
