Improvements!

Recently, we have been doing a lot of heavy lifting! And shoveling and raking. Also, we had some hardscaping done by a fine crew of professionals. Thank heaven for professionals! Our patio is becoming more comfortable by the minute, especially as the view improves with big, flashy summer flowers all abloom, and the mountain view that is graced most afternoons with gorgeous rain clouds. It is feeling like DEEP summer by now. We are beginning to harvest lovely, slender green beans and tomatoes. Soon....cukes and maybe even some green chiles! All meals now include a requisite leafy green salad and absolutely everything is served with fresh herbs and edible flowers! Our garden has spoiled us.
