Garden 2011

Luke's old garden was broken apart and blown to smithereens by the "ever-so-gentle" desert wind.

(P.S. Last week, we had 30 MPH wind all day with occasional 70 MPH gusts.  I kept the windows and doors shut tight and still I was finding dust inside my house.  Lame-O!)

So this year, we (and by "we" I mean Luke) built a bigger and better garden out of wood instead of PVC pipe.  It is like a giant chicken wire cage!

Here is a glimpse of one of the Saturdays we spent building and prepping the garden. 

*I sat in my rocking chair and supervised.*

I haven't taken any recent pictures of the complete and finished project, but it looks pretty snazzy!  WIND; you have no power here!  The dirt has been mixed and the seeds we planted have even turned into actual living, growing plants!
