Another good weekend, Another big yard post.

So this is going to be a big post with lots of pictures and little text.  We had a fairly nice weekend with lots of rain in the evenings.This was good because we could easily pull the thistles and plant the plants but bad because the grass was very wet and hard to mow.  Fortunately I had Oscar to help me with that part.

Oscars guide to mowing the lawn:
Step One: Get naked and get the mower
Step Two: Get dad to ask the neighbor for motor oil and make him go buy gasoline.
Step Three:  Help dad check oil and gas and top off the tank two tanks. (preferable also while naked)


Step Four: Push lawn mower around


All Done!!!

Mawg and I did a bunch of weeding and planting.  Admittedly Mawg did more but she also like gardening more and I still have strep throat.  Here is a short list (with pictures) of improvements:

1) Install and polish two gardens in front of the shed. Margaret can tell you about all her plants but there is a nice yellow trumpet vine for the trellis my parents got her for Christmas




1.5) Also Marigolds in the wall pot my parents got us like three years ago...


2 ) Weeded, tilled, watered and planted a psuedo-vegetable garden


"Playin' in da mud"

Irrigation!

Scotch Bonnett Pepper

Ghost Pepper

Habanero Peppers

Tomatos (Roma for Pasta Sauce!)

3) Weeded, disassembled and mowed an old raised bed garden.


4)Made a kitty Yin-Yang

 (A subsection of the cat swarm)

5) Lots of playing in the pillows!

  1. Nice wall pot! Also nice fat little man. I like his pot belly in the first picture. Are those peppers for hot sauce, I presume? Have you gotten a chance to use that recipe book at all?
