The Good Samaritan

So the other day I was out back taking pics of stuff and I heard the wooshing of water in my front yard, as I'm coming around the corner to investigate this is what I see.

She was so focused she didnt even notice me taking pics of her. What a good neighbor!

Then she proceeded to water my whole garden, which took her about an hour.
Refill the bucket, water garden... refill bucket (almost fall in), water garden, etc.

I now have 101 posts on this blog! I've seen people do give-aways for that sort of thing, but I dont have anything worth while to give away. Oh well!

So, I'll post some pics I took today:

My one and only child Bocy, I'm sure she's sick of getting her pic taken.

Flowers my sister planted this spring are just now popping up

One of the only surving peas!

Tiny yet yummy carrots

LESSONS FROM THE HERB #1

By: R

No we’re not talking about the favorite HERB of the Valley. I’m talking about the lessons I have learned from a non-producing garden. These are my thoughts as I sat and pondered in the last few weeks.


You’ll never understand planting good seeds until you plant some seeds and see them grow. You see the scriptures speak of planting good seeds, which is commendable.

I have planted many seeds of all types; some good seeds and some bad seeds. Good seeds grow into beautiful plants reaching towards the sun producing sweet fruit. Bad seeds do nothing or worse, produce infectious weeds that clutter the ground and attempt to choke out the good plants.

Great care must be taken to remove both weed and its root. If the root is not also taken up and cast out of the garden the weed will again spring up at the first chance. You have to understand the relationship of the fruit plant and the weed plant, and to understand that, you’ll have to plant seeds, so go plant a garden.

Our garden contains:

Snap Peas

Spinach

Carrots

Cabbage

Cilantro

Zucchini

Leaf Lettuce

Romaine Lettuce

Broccoli

Kohlrabi

Tomato Plants

Bell Peppers

Radishes

Potatoes

Strawberries
