garden's bounty



Some of our yellow tomatoes-our large pepper we are hoping will turn red-and a few of those cucumbers......yum....

Wow Sweet Success



Our vegetable garden! We are currently enjoying lots of cucumbers and a few tomatoes have ripened. Lots more will be ready soon.

This is Adam's herb garden. He tends it so well and loves cooking with all of the different herbs.

How does your garden grow?



Here are the beginning stages of our square foot gardening. The first is Adam's herb garden and the second is our vegetable garden.

More dock pics



Bill, mom's friend Jon, Josh, Adam and Yacky worked hard all day on the dock.

We have a dock!


The much awaited dock was indeed completed in a day.....well 99 % of it. It still needs a bridge-as of now we can step over the bank to it or walk the plank. It's beautiful and easy to launch the kayak from it. We have enjoyed several evening paddles around the pond and have spotted what seems to be perhaps three baby night herons. I will try to get some photos of them to post very soon.

Yacky was the shift supervisor in the construction process. It was the first time he discovered there was a large body of water at the end of the property....he liked it a lot.
