i got ahead of myself yesterday and started turning over our annual flower beds. the soil is so rich back here::
i even walked around the bend and got started on the garden. out came the tomato stakes. i wish the soil here was as nice and fluffy. but this was the first season for the new garden area and it did well. next spring we'll dump a few loads of compost dirt into it and we'll be good to go::
oh, and goodbye nasturtiums.....bella made small work of the last few blossoms while i was digging! she's a flower picking enthusiast! i'm surprised we had anything to look at this summer. most she brings in to stick in water.....but these she simply chews up and spits out! she likes the idea that they are edible. the taste? not so much.
