Last weekend I made a quick trip to Brooklyn, NY. My daughter Laura lives there. In the 25 hours there, we accomplished a lot especially in her back yard. Laura has just moved to an apartment with a sweet garden. Over the weekend we worked to bring alittle garden life and to freshen up the yard, edge a little and dig up the dirt in her garden. We planted a couple new fall perennials for color. What she really wanted was to build a square foot garden, she did. Gardening projects always take longer than you have, but we got a good start and gardening moments happened. Gardening is more fun is when you have someone to work and laugh with.
We worked down to the last minute on late Sunday afternoon. I quickly cleaned up and Laura would swiftly get me back to Manhattan to catch the bus to Baltimore.
This picture was taken by Laura on her cell phone, in the very last minutes standing in her back yard. The click… click … click sound of her taking pictures would make anyone laugh just in the hopes we would get one good shot. She did it. The picture says it all, I think.
