New Garden...and stuff

I decided that I wanted to try to be more like some of the people I admire. My friend Christine (http://darkcloudbluesky.blogspot.com/) lives in Australia and has a wonderful veggie garden and just did a huge art installation about gardens and even though ours will never compare, Gord and I decided that this year we will finally attempt this great feat of veggie gardening. So, although it doesn't look like much these are big steps for us non-gardeners. We planned it, bought it, built it and then Gord 'installed' it. Now we are just waiting for our soil delivery and when we return from Peru let the growing begin! Anthony also performed his play at his final drama class of the season. Journey to the Centre of the Drain was a smashing hit and I particularly enjoyed the dance party at the end. Anthony was great, knew all his lines and loves being on stage. The kids all wrote the play together and developed their characters, costumes etc. So much fun! Gord and Anthony also built a wheelbarrow. Gord is a chair sanding, deck staining, winter cleaning machine. And a wheelbarrow just makes him an official backyarder fixer-uper. And who doesn't need a good cuppa tea and book after building your first wheelbarrow?
