My Grama's Soul

Anyone who knows me, knows, I have been a lifetime Gardner.  When I was young I used to have around l50 plants in my home.  Mind you, some died...but nevertheless, it never took the joy away from looking after the one's that survived.  I lived in AZ for most of my life so gardening can be sketchy.   It does delight me to see that gardening has taken hold once again in this beautiful world of ours.  I hope that this is not a passing fad like Sourdough Bread and Kambocha and all that baking we were doing during the early days of lockdown. Gardening can be a lifetime endeavor guaranteeing the Gardner earthly delights each and every day.  Keep on digging in that dirt. Stay happy Jo

AHHHHH.....SPRING!!!!!! Jo 

My mother was never much of a Gardner.  She never had the time with taking care of our family and working full time.  But, one thing she did grow was a sweet potato vine.  She even used the container I have used in this photo.  An old depression glass pitcher...here is to you mom!! Jo

I just read a quote that said "gardening is outside housework". If you think like that, my friends, you will never be a real Gardner. haha Jo  

Gardening in truly the simplest of pleasures.  These are flowers from my yard. I love being able to go outside and cut flowers for inside my house. Jo 

Thought this elderly woman looked so "plucky". Don't know how old she is but I hope to be a feisty as she is when I'm her age. Keep on Keeping on.......... Jo

Well, I have fallen off the wagon with my posting everyday for 100 days.  I have not felt well for the last few days so have been resting and taking care of myself.   Here is a picture of my back yard garden.  I sit out back often and just appreciate being able to do so and enjoy my yard. Stay well and happy, JO
