Still Blooming!



 










12/22/2022

When I opened the door on the greenhouse
to check on the Brugs, the fragrance was 
so strong one could only stay in there a 
short time.  I kicked up the temps on the 
heaters as we are about to have some 
freezing weather for a few days, so they
say.  Praying for no ice damage.

Yet Another Storm To Hit Later In The Week!

 It's time for old Man Winter to hit later
this week, Ice Storm!!  We are getting
prepared for this to hit.  The last time
we had one in Febr. we had $15,000 
worth of damage!   

Can't wait for this to hit due to the 
conditions of the surrounding trees.

12/21/2022

I had to vac up 3 bags of leaves and
pine needles.  Yep, still coming down 
and more to drop.

12/22/2022

Still awaiting the storm!  22 degrees this
am and dry!   

12/23/2022

The storm hit!!
















12/25/2022

Still iced in but at least this am we are above
freezing in the temps.  I'll take 34 any day!
Currently having rain and so it's been a fun
48 hours.   No mail in 3 days.

12/12/2022

Today was the last day to cleanup the yard
before the weather takes a nose dive into 
the 30s and before the east winds pickup
again!

I took 6 full Pickle buckets of pine needles
from the east trees.  More could be picked up
but it's still to wet.   So after this next storm
comes in I'm sure there will be more needles
to pick up from Sable's area.  

I also picked up 1/4 of a bucket of leaves!
Yes, they are still coming down out of the 
trees to the north.

Time for some trees to go!!  


12/16/2022

Today I took another 2 pickle buckets
off Sable's gravel area.  Plus another
1/4 of a bucket of leaves.

12/17/2022

Today was another clean the roof day
before the rain hit over night.  I took 
2 full pickle buckets of needles and 
1/2 leaves buckets off the roofs.  Before
I cleaned up the leaves from the last of
our trees.

Why remove all the leaves?  I can't do
the leaf molds that happen if they are
allowed to stay over winter.  Molds and 
pine are on the top of the Allergy list. 

So tomorrow will be a bad allergy day!!

Cross Stitch Time!!

 Now that the yard is done being cut back
and the weather is starting to be to cold 
for me to be out.  It's time to do some 
cross stitch and keep busy inside.  I 
still have to go out and vac up leaves
and pine needles but with it being to
wet they will have to wait until it drys
some!!

Here is the first of this year's projects.

Changing Opening Date

 I have decided to change the opening dates
for 2023, to May 1 because of Climate Change!
The gardens will close Oct. 31 our usual date.

We are still asking for folks to make an 
appointment, so we can take time for you!

You are welcome to stand at the curb but 
know I'm really busy in the yard so I may
not have time to invite you up.   This past
year was extremely busy with the watering
due to the heat wave we had.

If you are interested in our veggie garden
produce, please make your requests early
so we will have enough veggies.  Planning
will start in May around the 15th.
