Garden


For IF's "garden."
Spring is fast approaching and I can't wait to work in our gardens. Last weekend the temperature on Saturday was 65 degrees. I wanted to get my shovel and wellies out and start planting. Right now it is 11 degrees with a biting north wind. I think my planting days are still far off in the distance though one can dream and prepare. I think I'll pull out my seed pots and start there, maybe that will encourage spring to come sooner.
And another, older illustration that fits this theme well, "roots."

Computerarte and all, thank you so much, I wish I could find wellies that looked just like these. My husband found a cute pear with hearts today but I passed them up for heels...so much more practical when the ground is frozen still! :)
