I Love my Yard!

I live in one of those neighborhoods where the houses are close together and the yards are small.  I was worried I wouldn’t have room for a garden, but I found a yard that’s on a curve (so the backyard is a bit bigger) with an empty field behind it.  Also, I have a row of stones, boulders really, between my backyard and the adjacent field.  It is cozy and just right for my garden.

Basically, I don’t have too much grass to mow, and I have my own little wooded garden area to play in.

The vegetable garden is looking a bit scraggy, but I guess that’s what happens when you hang out in your hammock too much. I’m still getting peppers at least.

And of course, I get lots of visitors.

And the best visitors this time of year are the juicy oranges just ready to pick.
