Garden Geek Chic


It looks ridiculous, but it keeps the bugs out of my ears while gardening. Other than the silliness factor, there is only one other complaint.

That's Mrs. Appleseed to you


This is an apple seedling from a supermarket gala apple. The seed had already sprouted inside the apple. It was trying so hard to grow it seemed to be a shame to let it go to waste. Apples don't grow true from seed, so there is no telling what kind of fruit might come off of this tree.

Just In Case


Our place was built in either the late '60's or the mid 70's and it was purely a seasonal camp. No one stayed here longer than hunting season or a summer trip, so the lack of indoor plumbing wasn't a huge inconvenience. This is the original bathroom, and we don't quite know what to do with it. I won't even open the door to see the condition of the privy, or see how big the spiders are that live in the hole...


what do you think we should do with it?

Wild Strawberries!




First wild strawberries in our yard. They can be a little tart.
