The Plot

Many people like to blog.  My wife used to like to scrapbook, now she blogs instead.  Her blog is multi-purpose.  It functions as a scrapbook, a book of remembrance or journal, mail to family and friends, etc.  But my wife isn't so much interested in the blog as she is about the events and people she writes about on her blog.  I have another blog but it is not a hobby for me to maintain it; rather, blogging is where I keep track of things and share ideas about a particular hobby I have.  So it is with this blog; posts here will be about our ongoing efforts to subdue the earth in our little plot, to make it beautiful and to make it fruitful.  We are excited about our location and the possibilities and look forward to learning and working together. 

We have gardened before with varying levels of success for reasons not fully understood.  With H's completion of her Master Gardener's class and ongoing hands-on couse requirements, our increased interest in plant biology and husbandry, landscaping and our maiden adventure in beekeeping, we are sure to have to have a fruitful harvest of success as well as failure with lessons learned.  This blog will chronicle our efforts from the Spring thaw to the harvest and beyond.  B

Note: This picture was taken Summer 08 or 09.  We have since cut down the overgrown hollyhocks on the right of the sidewalk, pruned the trees and added some flowers.
