Finally spring

Posted: March 27th, 2004 by Frank

Lisa spent the week in LA and took the red-eye home last night. While I was waiting for her, I scooped as much crud as I could out of the pond, and turned the pump back on. We lost all our fish for the second year in a row. We told the landscaper we wanted

Plant the cosmos, enjoy the bulbs

Posted: May 18th, 2003 by Frank

Lisa had to take the train down to DC today, but the train has been rescheduled to leave at three, so we were able to get in little more gardening before she left. While we were up in Claremont to get the fish on Friday, we stopped in at Wal-mart to pick up some potting

It’s maintaining itself remarkably well, considering how little I’ve been home to tend to it. While it did rain last night, things are still very dry, and the poor lawn isn’t

High Summer

Posted: July 14th, 2001 by Lisa

Welcome to High Summer! I was a picture-taking fool today, but I can’t help it. The garden is absolutely beautiful right now. Such a change, suddenly. There are tons of colors all over the place, and everything, it seems, is in bloom. My window boxes in particular are all very full, draping down nicely.
