Spud Detour

19 March 09

So dark this morning…but the clouds are sprinkling the newly planted potatoes and all is right with the world….at least with the garden.

Yesterday I took a detour from the big painting and played outside. Following Richard’s directions we planted our potatoes under a bed of straw and leaves. Herself did all of the heavy lifting and we took our time…but it was wonderfully healing to be out working in the gardens again…and if the sunshine and spring rains don’t make these babies grow…the healthy dose of love and laughter we shared planting them certainly will !

Tomorrow an update on what’s on the easel.

Today…. a rainy day to paint.
