Re:gardening - 2008/06/07 18:59Some gardens around here try to grow a cash crop. Deer eat it or they are successful and make lots of cash, or they get 10 to 20 in the pen. Think I'll stick to veggies and flowers.

Re:gardening - 2008/06/25 14:33Suzan, you need a couple of goats, they will trim your yard and entertane you at the same time. But, they will also eat your garden, may need a fence. lol Sorry to hear of you outdoorsy chores that are difficult for you presently. Don't worry, the neighbors will just think you have had a pint too many. It happens to me all the time. Better outside trimming than shoveling snow. hugz deary. Mark

Re:gardening - 2008/06/29 14:23For my friend Suzan,
Out on my deck tonight, sipping whisky in a summer shower, I noticed that all of the lighting bugs had taken refuge in the woods, The trees with broad leaves providing them shelter from the rain. Hundreds of them displaying their soft glow, slowly ebbing out into the dark yard as the rain relinquished its steady flow to a soft, almost misty shower. I couldn't distinguish the deer in the woods but I could occasionally hear the soft wisp of a hove scrape dampened by the moist ground. The still night sporadically pierced by the shriek of an unseen bird rustled from it's perch for some cause or another. Hearing the rain descend on the leaves, pooling together, creating a crescendo of larger drops dripping from the leaves only to make a gentle thud when hitting the ground. Standing in the rain at night appears to be somewhat daft, however, what else should one do while imprisoned by the madness of ailing health. The night is as black as the sickness in my body and yet it yields many wonderful things. And just like the rain the sickness will eventually fade as its storm has done its damage and leaves me as I am. Am I a lightning rod, I think not. I am just a man, sipping whisky, in the rain, in has back yard, on his deck.

thanks mark , i reallylike this...can just imagine all those little shining lights out there in the trees, and the sound of the rain on the leaves.....
i think its nice to share those little things, we living in completely different surroundings.
picture you sitting out,in the pitch black, getting slowly sozzled, and rumninating on the meaning of life.
