Tomato seedlings!

Monsoons coming in

Some crazy rain came in on Sunday. Two and a half inches in half an hour. WHen the sky broke there was a double rainbow but this was all I could catch on camera.

Healing hands

Cats have no idea what crutches are. They're as scary as aliens in their little kitty world. When I lay down Pinkie goes into instant prayer position hoping those damn crutches will disappear soon.

Knee Surgery

A torn meniscus is putting a dent in my spring activities. The doc told me I had a pothole on my femur(?). I'll be on crutches for three weeks. The doctor initials the leg when they are prepping you for surgery to make sure they cut the right one!

First BBQ of the season

I had a friend visiting from out of town so Davey loaned me his BBQ and we made buffalo burgers and sweet potato fries. Davey puts the oil in a cast iron skillet right on the coals to cook the fries. Delish!

Espalier

This is a semi-dwarf Gala apple tree I planted in the front yard. I plan to espalier it against this garden wall. As the new shoots take off I'll train them to the plane of the wall in tiers.
