Wanderings And Ponderings

Somewhere along the journey of leading life as orchardists, we also became amateur bug sleuths, entomologists-in-training, and I for one, do not enjoy this new time-consuming occupation. 

It leaves me with the willies, as I scroll through endless photographs in an attempt to identify new-comers, potential enemies in our midst.  I remember the days of chilling at the end of the day with a glass of wine and a good movie.  Now I'm scanning online, quickly as I can I might add, for a glimpse of the latest beastie after the evening walk through the orchard and garden. 

I will post some of these discoveries once I am over my heebie-jeebies.  For now, enjoy the good things, the visual delight of things a - growing, and at a distance, the naivete' of the newbie orchardist   The awe.  The beauty of nature at work.  Remember, It is up close and personal that reality bites.  Sometimes for real.

    I am T-  the other half -of the dream-wrangler team, in the Orchard adventure.  
    Mother to 3 amazing adult sons, and grandmother to the biggest rays of sunshine in our lives. Our oldest grand-daughter, we used to call "Little A", but now she is medium to tall-sized.  She is "Miss A" now. The last couple of  years she has greeted a brother, "Little R" , and this past fall, "Little Miss I" and another mister, who will be known as "Little K", arriving any day now!

    Then there's H.- I'll let him elaborate at some point,  but in my opinion, he's the best seaweed wrangler west of the Atlantic. He remains our artist. in residence, and contines to astound T with his penchant for unusual garden-type installations.  He lives to dance a jig with his grand kids, and teach them all about gardens, growing and such.
