It’s Happening
Vicki Day2021-10-22T18:23:15-07:00I’m not certain I like much of anything more than the feeling I get from the fall and winter sun playing off the cooler temperatures.
Surprise! Surprise! Surprise!

A little this and that from us
Vicki Day2021-10-13T15:40:30-07:00We seem to have so much going on that it all seems really little or REALLY BIG. Our feeding station always seems to be the scene of some scene or another and here something got the obvious attention of [...]
Born again garage and its about time!
Vicki Day2021-09-27T18:07:26-07:00That devious cadre of elves that leave your garage in a god-awful mess about every 6-9 months outdid themselves recently in our large garage. We suddenly realized that one of the main beams holding up the existing ‘attic’ was significantly [...]

Mother Nature does NOT waste time, right?
Vicki Day2021-09-19T17:26:38-07:00I am over-the-moon excited at how the Earth Mother is validating our raised veggie beds by showing us progress in just four silly days! We had tiny little lettuce sprouts in just that amount of time so we planted more [...]

Vicki Day2021-09-17T20:50:17-07:00Blessed are we with the infusion of fresh new energy from Master Gardener Tomas in tackling the recreation of Window on Avalon and Andrew’s Attic on Avalon. We began with the need to expose a clean palette on both [...]
We’re fixin’ to Fill the Beds
Vicki Day2021-09-14T11:56:22-07:00Labor Day and September find us moving forward smartly with our roof-top raised bed veggie garden, and now we are really going to have to work . . . hefting gravel and three types of dirt to be mixed, then [...]
IRRESISTIBLE!
Vicki Day2021-09-12T14:29:27-07:00Some of nature’s delights are meant to be savored OVER AND OVER AGAIN. Guess who is peeking from the greenery and whose cheeks could NOT be any more full. I can barely stand it that I [...]
