HAPPY AUSTRALIA DAY


Happy Australia Day to all.


With 38 degree heat today, Ivan got up at 4.40am to prepare the area for his (and Sarah's vegetable garden beds). I woke her around 8am and she quickly dressed and joined her Daddy to fill it with soil, blood & bone and fertilizer. When it cools down a little (or maybe on Saturday) they will plant the vegetable seedlings we bought yesterday.

Soon we will hopefully have onions, lettuce, radishes, tomatoes, carrots, capsicum and beetroot from our own vege patch. Now we just have to keep Abby (our dog) from digging up the bed and the birds and snails from eating the seedlings.

A very Happy Australia Day to you Beverly!

It's so hard to fathom that as I put on my layers to keep warm and head out the door that you are gardening! I love your photos and good for Sara to be planting! Happy gardening! :-)
