planting garden

I said. .."this is the year we planting a full out vegetable garden.  It is embarrassing that we live on acreage and have not one proper vegetable to speak of."

I also said. .."All the years we lived in town ...we had a vegetable garden and now we sit. . .

not a vegetable on the yard."

He said. . " Okay ..we'll put it out back . . .there is a hose there.  I'll rototiller up a patch and add some manure and you can go for it."

I said. .."oh thanks."

Several weeks ago the plot of land was prepared and he transferred my rhubarb from behind to house into  the new garden plot.

Yesterday. ..when the skies broke. . we  he planted the garden.

He said. .."this is going to be your job."

I said. .."oh for sure."

I said. .."I'm just taking pictures for the blog.". ..as he could well see.

After we he finished planting. .  we he washed off our muddy boots. . .we he washed off all the hoes and shovels.

Now. ..how will my garden grow? 

You will have a front row seat to a weekly garden check. 

I have promised to do the weeding. ..which I will. 

I'll do the harvesting. .

and I'll do the canning.

He'll be glad we put this garden in.

He truly will.

all for now. .

Updated early Friday afternoon ..

He said. . ."where you going"  . . (observing me in my garden boots)

I said. ."to see how my garden is growing"

He said. .."the potatoes are up"

I said. .."no seriously?"

He said. ..nothing. .

but smiled.
