If the weather permitted you to work in your yard today...
Comments (46)Here is a picture. Here is an picture. And another after picture of a future . This is what I have been doing over the past couple of days. This is our side yard that I had been neglecting. Since it's the first thing you see of our house when you turn onto our drive, I thought I had better get it into better shape. My "soil" is limestone and rock so raised beds are, by far, the most logical choice. The beds closest to the camera will be mostly ornamentals and annuals and perennials. The ones farthest away will be primarily vegetable beds. The bed under the crape myrtle will be a fragrance bed. It is located to the left of me as I stood to take the other pics. Over the spring and summer of this year, I will also be working to cover the paths with cardboard, feed sacks and newspapers. Then I will top that off with some kind of mulch. Probably loose hay and alfalfa since we have 7 horses and an abundance of those items :). I hope I can post a pic later this year of those beds full of lush and thriving plants. I think I must go and shamelessly beg for seeds on the seed exchange :). Any suggestions for things that will thrive in my area will be much appreciated. I'll need all the help I can get to fill these beds up! It's bitter cold and freezing rain and drizzle here right now :(. Kristi...See MoreWhat Is Your Weather Like Today?
Comments (22)Sunny and around 64 right now. Housecleaning must be the order of the day. I've cleaned the living room, Florida room, kitchen and guest bedroom. Tomorrow I'll do our bedroom and the 2 baths and screened porch. That leaves the dreaded garage--which I hate to clean! One thing I do love is my Haan steam cleaner. No more backaches!...See MoreHow is Your Weather Today?
Comments (18)A couple of degrees above freezing, they have a lot more snow in London than we have, about 15 mi. southwest. They're talking quite a bit of rain ... but it started to snow a couple of hours ago. That 25 - 50 cm. of snow that someone spoke of, translates into 10 - 20 inches for folks not on metric. I almost got stuck driving out the lane the other day, and was planning to take a heavy run at the bank thrown up by the plough on my return ... ... but the landlord had come and ploughed it all out of the way, so I could drive in the lane, rejoicing. He's really helpful at keeping the snow out of the way. I did get stuck while making a turn in a driveway in the city, a week or so ago, borrowed a shovel to dig myself out ... had told myself some time ago that I should carry a shovel in the car: evidently it was one of those days in which I don't hear (myself) too well. Anyway ... the next day, while leaving my place, I got stuck in the bank kicked up by the county plough at the end of the lane ... and laughed at myself for having neglected to put the said shovel into the car that morning, as I walked back to the shed to get it. It's there now ... and I was glad, this afternoon, as I got stuck again in what appeared to be a small layer of snow at the end of someone's driveway in the city when I was turning to take a friend where he wanted to go. Did a bit of shovelling, tried it again, little movement, so he, a very large guy, got out and pushed ... which got me out. ole jolyful...See MoreWhat is Your Weather Like Today?
Comments (7)Here in Ohio the weather seems to be doing the opposite of what the weather man predicts. If they say sunny, it's cloudy, if it's supposed to be cloudy...um well it usually is cloudy then too. It's basically cloudy here ALL THE TIME! Today was supposed to be a gorgeous cloud free day and it's solid overcast...yesterday was the same thing...solid clouds but was supposed to be a glorious day...NOT!...See MoreSpringroz
