The world really is a great and beautiful place. The dew drops on the nasturium leaves sparkle like perfect round prisms, the reds of the runner beans, the yellows of the sunflowers, and the massive tangle of the tomatoes. The greens and silvers of my herb garden and the jewel like colour of the jars of filled preserves on my shelves.
The potatoes need till at least the end of September and I am watering the bejeebers out of the last barrel so that I can increase the size of the top potatoes. I planted too late and will need to plant earlier next year, this will work and work well if I can figure it out for our climate.
My garden is still growing and I have covered the tomatoes with a greenhouse made of plastic. and it is so far holding. I have almost got the top layer of the firepit platform done and I love the way it is coming together. The next step will be the actual firepit and the base for the bake oven, I can`t wait for the first fire with all the sparkle off the rocks. I think this year I will plant crocuses, snow drops and some tulips back by Jay`s tree and Buddah. The cherry tree has produced so many cherries this year and I hope to have just enough left to make cherry jelly, and with crocus, etc under the blossoms in the spring.......
like the song says I love the whole world it really is a great and beautiful place Boom de yada.
Cheers
