A Garden Update...

I know it is hard to believe - but it has not rained (with the exception of one hail storm) in almost two weeks! It has been amazing! I have absolutely loved having the evenings to get dirty in my garden! Step 1 complete: Dig out rocks and gravel out of 2/3 of my garden. Step 2 complete: Bring in good topsoil and rework the area. Step 3 complete: collect cool rocks off of the beach and make a small border.

The picture does not show it -- but I have started planting heathers in the cracks on top of the rock, and along it's side. Next step: start planting the flowers/plants I have bought. I still have not made up my mind as to what I am going to do with the far side of the rock. There are a lot of stones and weeds there. It is going to be back breaking work to clear it. Stay tuned...
