Marco - Polo - I'm Over Here

I haven't been getting much stitching accomplished.

I've been playing here.

And believe it or not,

Yes, I do weed the garden.

I haven't had a garden for about 3 years.

When Mr. LB and I were discussing it,

I said I might put it here

as it gets good sun and is close to water.

 I also said, "I have an idea."

He is so patient.

I didn't tell him my idea.

One day he came home, and I had it all staked out.

I wanted it to look nice-

like more of a court yard garden

that we could eat:)

Many of the plants are just small,

but are growing.

Think we have enough lettuce?

There are flowers and cucumbers

planted around the bird-bath.

I'm not wild about the grass path.

It's too difficult to maneuver the lawn mower

around without running over food

and still getting to all the grass.

Come fall or next spring, 

we might be laying some brick.

Will also be changing the bean trellis.

We have a humming bird feeder over to the left of this.

I actually caught 4.

One, you can only see the tail of

at the bottom of the feeder.

I usually call them the buzzards

since they will buzz by close.

Last night while were were eating,

there must have been a dozen of them.

We actually have 2 feeders.

I fill one, one day

and the other the next.

At the end of the day,

more than my gloves are tired.

On another note,

This weekend is Baker City Quilt Show.

Mom took 18 quilts over for 3 of us just yesterday.

You can look forward to pictures next week.

Until Next Time,

Nimble Fingers and Even Stitches
