The Garden

 What a difference a few weeks make in the garden.


May 22th, 2012

We put up a temporary fence to keep the bunnies out....








May 25th, 2012

We mulched the perimeter to make mowing easier.

June 10th, 2012

Long hose for watering... Very little rain this year so far... Notice the grass is less green....

June 20th, 2012

Put up movable fence to make weeding, and harvesting easier....  the tomatoes grew quite a lot... the yard is drying up....

July 07, 2012

Still watering, but things are doing well.... we bought some tree wood mulch and put it on the raised beds to try to hold in some moisture...  Pumpkins are beginning to go nuts....

Things are growing but we are having some bug issues... organic gardening is time consuming and I worry about leaving for vacation... but we shall see.

2 months from planting till now.... :)

The Dog and The President- A tale of 2 Dogs

This is Webster....

We realized that he is under the weather last night.

He hasn't been eating well.

Last night we were worried because he didn't seem to be drinking either....

Nothing seemed to interest him... No Treats, no scrambled egg, not rice with beef broth, not even spaghetti.... These are not part of his normal diet but this is unusual for this scrappy intense fellow.

The heat has been terrible around here and we kind of figured that it was just that.... but maybe not.

The vet is going to take a look at him in a couple hours.  I pray that he is able to figure out what is going on with our good boy.  When you have kids and pets there is always something going on, someone going to a doctor  or appointment of some sort.  Today is Webbie's turn.      


The President is in town to spew his promises and lies, I hope that does not cause traffic issues... It is, thankfully, on the other side of town but I will give myself extra time to get up there just in case.  Governor Romney is around here somewhere too... or his representatives.... I will be glad when the campaigning is over they are all a bunch of crooks, thieves and liars... 


Question: 


Why do they exempt themselves from the programs and things that they create for their constituents?


Why do they have a better deal than those they represent?  


Why don't people wise up and see the truth?
