Winter is coming...



Well, finally, just a week before potato planting time, winter is coming to Oklahoma! Tonight we are supposed to get a hard freeze (good-bye peaches) and the schools are warning the children to watch the weather for Monday. Hopefully this will pass quickly. I insulated my garden, hoping to save the new little plants that have emerged. We shall see... Meanwhile, I noticed that the periwinkle are in bloom. What a great plant for areas where nothing else will grow!!

Day 3 - Free the Tree!



Today I worked for almost an hour just to free this oak tree. The briars were 20-30 feet long up in this tree. The two small cedars in front of it will be cut out eventually...maybe...
