| Whatcom Falls this morning |
I had a very nice brisk walk with the ladies to start off my weekend. We started at Bloedel Donovan Park and headed off to the trails and stairs in Whatcom Falls Park. It was a very fast walk as we didn't have any stragglers and I really hustled to keep up, but now I'm feeling really good. Afterwards, we got together at a local coffee shop to visit before going our separate ways. I've got to work in my garden today, and it's really coming along.

| My garden spot yesterday afternoon |
I went out to water my garden yesterday and discovered that my neighbor Rob had already watered for me! Plus he's put in a walkway of wood chips between our garden areas. He's a real overachiever, if you ask me. Take a look at his spot.

Wow! I'm going off to the garden store to get some sugar snap peas, if I haven't waited too long, that is. They are already coming up in Carol's garden, and I realized I'd better do it today if I'm going to have them at all. Dan, another community gardener, just sent me a link to remind me that today is
World Naked Gardening Day. Who knew?
:-)
a blogger friend posted about that yesterday. being that she's a gardener and today is also her birthday, i told her to garden in her birthday suit! she declined. :)
ReplyDeleteNo naked gardener pictures? Shame.
ReplyDeleteAnd yay for sugar snap peas. And gardening more generally.
It's great to have an overachieving gardener taking care of the plot next door!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Tom...it's never a bad thing to have an overachiever next door...if, and only IF, they are helping you out!
ReplyDeleteSo, no naked gardening?
ReplyDeleteSugar snap peas are the gardener's candy. Get them in the dirt.
ReplyDeleteFollowed the link and was delighted to reacquaint myself with the Grumpy Gardener. He is fun but I'll let the others do the naked bit.
I am quite envious of your gardening pursuits. Everything seems to grow so well for you.
ReplyDeleteHa, ha! They have a day for everything don't they? I take it you didn't celebrate. :)
ReplyDeleteIt's nice to get the peas in early but they can be seeded later. Some gardeners have a good sense of humor. it seems some people are not bothered by mosquitoes.
ReplyDeleteOh Yeah...naked garden day is all fun and games until 15 people in the community garden bend over to do the weeding!
ReplyDeleteHurray for over achievers. It makes your job so much easier.
ReplyDeleteYour garden is looking good! You are lucky to have a great garden neighbor...and not a nekid one either:)
ReplyDeleteThe idea of communal gardening is such a good one isn't it! How kind of Rob to water your patch. Lovely to see your enthusiasm.
ReplyDeleteWhen I saw your heading......i'm thinking "oh NO, she didn't". haha
ReplyDeleteWorld Naked Gardening Day - who knew - I could only say that those who do, musn't mind the bugs, etc. I am a vivid gardener and couldn't even imagine that. I can just see buddy there up on the tractor buck naked - YIKES. Enough of that. Rob is just a sweetie to do all that. Does look nice. Have fun ......gardening :)
LOL! Just proves they have a national day for almost everything and anything. Garden plots are looking good. Hope you got your peas. :)
ReplyDeleteYeah, I can imagine you gardening naked. Lol.
ReplyDeleteWhen I saw your post title I wondered if.......... well..... you know...
ReplyDeleteToo funny! It's wonderful to have such a great, overachieving gardening neighbor.
