So we planted this garden.  And then came the flood.  For real!  I think it rained for a month.  I know it rained for a month of Sundays because I left our Easter clothes hanging on the wall for that long waiting to wear them again on a day suitable for outdoor pictures.  Now it’s been so long that I’m not sure I want to fight that battle.  Yikes.

It finally stopped raining last week sometime and we were able to assess the damage.  The garden was looking a little sad.  Lots of yellow leaves on the tomato plants.  And the dirt had sunk way down low like it was trying to slither away.  And much of it had done just that.  Poured on out the sides of our cute little borders.

Some new dirt.  Some mending.  Some new planting.  And things are looking much better.

Simon helped with the dirt.

He loved the dirt.  The clean up: not so much.

A little hay makes the whole garden look happier.

Now I actually want to BE out here.

Watching things grow.

Scarecrows coming soon!!
