Random Soapbox for Saturday 5/5/18

I don't mean to go off on a rave here, but ...

[remember -- I rave once a month instead of ranting every Saturday because it's better for your health - and with my winter weight gain, anything I can do healthier is a good thing]

... for the third year in a row, it's time to celebrate World Naked Gardening Day!

We covered proper watering techniques the first year we participated ... and provided a reminder to trim your bushes last year ... so for year three, we're giving you encouragement to get your box in order.

Our flower box in the back yard is too far away from the irrigation system, so the weeds have taken over -- BUT that didn't keep us from making sure we still had flowers a-growin' in it (as shown).

On this day in particular but also all summer long -- may your gardens grow beautifully and may your box soon look spectacular!
