A closer look at cabbage and peppers






I haven't ever tried growing cabbage until this year. I planted peppers in between the cabbage plants and if you look close (click on the picture and it will open into a larger view), you may see a pepper or two under the leaves. The bottom photo is of cabbage and peppers when we planted them in early June. The middle photo was taken yesterday before I harvested a cabbage. Now... what to do with cabbage...

What warm weather can do.





These pictures were taken during this growing season. Early April, early June and yesterday Aug 10th. Since I got an award for 'best use of space' and not 'not great at weeding', I thought I would post a few of the things going on at the garden. These photos were all taken at about the same place, except the one with the red sign.

4th of July



Matt and I went to Durango for the 4th. We rode 50 miles off road in 2 days, the singletrack was fabulous and the weather wasn't too hot. Good food, good pals, it was a fun trip!

Engagement Party




Matt and I went to an engagement party that was held at a fancy car, fast car, show room. Thought I would take a few photos for the Wachtel men. Next time you are in town, we can go visit if you like...

Note that Dad's copper beech has been growing like a fat girl trapped in a Dairy Queen.

For Whom the Bell Tolls

Must have torn it off when the roof was replaced

All that remains of the Spirit of '86 - Winnebago Cheiftan Team: the old tow bar.

More from out back

Looking inside the back garage window, which was left open.
The Pool Water. This is in the shallow end.


The Back Yard

Doesn't look like the back yard has been cared for at all since we moved out
