A View From My Back Porch

Last day of July?!? 😱

Summer seems to be zooming along!

Foxes have moved on.

Rabbits have moved back.

So, I resorted to growing lettuce in a bucket near the house away from little bunnies.

I think my bucket of home grown lettuce is coming along nicely.

The squirrels finished off my sunflowers and have moved on to my tomatoes . . .every single green tomato.

Now that I finally caught up with all the weeding in the vegetable garden and flower beds, rain is expected for the next two, three maybe four days.

Meanwhile….

Clay shaped into various vessels and completely air dried await the first of two firings.

The other pieces that have been through the first firing are being glazed this week.

This last week of July, we have been enjoying our homegrown black berries and fresh farmer’s market peaches!

Summer bliss!

  1. I too love the offerings of each season, especially after 40 years in FL where seasonal changes are much more subtle. Give me cold days and a cup of hearty soup, balmy days of sunshine and flowers, crisp days with bright, fiery foliage! And praise God for the glory of each one.
