Courageous Joy

Saturday we took advanatage of the generousity of John and his family and went out to plant a garden on their land. We have a postage stamp lot and there is simply no where to plant a garden. We miss having a garden...though Mike loves to point out that we harvested our last garden with a lawn mower. Here is the start of this year's garden!

Jared and Jamin measuring off garden rows. They strung the string to make sure the rows were straight. *I'M* notorious for wild looking gardens - used to drive my Uncle Bill crazy - but this one will be very well laid out indeed.

John and Mike "play" with the tubing that will drip water to the garden...

Arielle and Nolan begin to plant corn. I'm wondering if this will still be a huge family adventure by the harvest season. {G}
