Our backyard extends beyond the area behind our house, it includes the places we frequent, the places we visit, the places where we live life. This blog is all about the things we find in our backyard and beyond.
That's a decent garden you have. My wife is going to increase our garden by 200% in the next couple of weeks. Our problem is that our instead of soil, we have only sand and shells, as we live 2 houses from the Gulf of Mexico. She's ordered 2 dump truck loads of black dirt for the garden, and a truckload of railroad ties. I'll be the one doing all of the hard work.
At least our citrus trees have no problem growing in the sand. The problem with having 11 citrus trees is what to do with all of the oranges, grapefruits, and keylimes.....everyone else is full up when harvest time is ready.
Wife to an artist, mother to three talented and beautiful girls who is just muddling through this journey we call life; some of it chronicled on these here blogs.
