Snow?

But it is only the beginning of October! Well, yeah.

He looks happy, I think

Cars are buried (buried by my standards--apparently this is nothing, I am told)

Lala sleeps while I obsess about the snow

The leaves are still green

I guess I forgot to bring in my herb garden for Winter

Chipmunk is a little confused (as was I)

I am not panicking, really, this Winter will be great. inhale-exhale-inhale-exhale

In My Dream Garden...

I would grow:

the most gorgeous hydrangeas...

magnificent morning glories...

the

sweetest sweet peas...

mounds and mounds of irish moss...

bushels of delectable strawberries...

Sunny daffodils all year long...

The brightest poppies...

lush lavender for luck...

peppermint as well...

Perhaps a mini rose or two...

And I would grow Rainbows and magic and love.

and you would all be invited to have a picnic in my dream garden.

Have a Sunshiny day!

One Year Later...

Asia Stasch's garden of glorious poppies! I don't think there is a prettier or more peaceful garden in all of Portland.

Here are pictures of Isabella and Auntie Danyel gardening May of 2008. 

Here's Isabella one year later "helping" garden this season. She loves wet dirt. I think she gets that from me.
