I've always loved wildflowers. Dolly Parton's song called "Wildflowers", has a line that goes like this - ..WILD FLOWERS DON'T CARE WHERE THEY GROW... (I have a link to the song on this blog - so have a listen). I've always thought of myself as a wild flower; I'll put my roots anywhere. This blog is mostly about my "wild" garden, our pond, the birds and insects that visit, it`s about our animals, and our home projects.

Wood, Wood, and More Wood
This was another "wood" weekend, with a "two-fold" agenda. You may recall my mentioning the neighbor's "bad fence", well one of the bad patches of the fence is now hidden by a new wood storage shed running parallel to the fence, and adjacent to the vegetable garden.
Since we were lucky to come by a fresh fallen cedar that some nice neighbors down the road had cut from their frontage, Chris figured it was the perfect excuse to build another wood storage shed; after all, we had to put the wood someplace because the other woodshed was full, and this one could be strategically placed to cover part of the bad fence. The 14 year old boys next door split the wood for us, and Chris built the wood shed very cleverly I would say, given the slope of the land. I moved and stacked all the wood into the shed on Saturday.
Since it is the beginning of fall, and the weather held, I also started the never ending task of chopping kindling. It's one of my favorite things to do!
I managed one cedar chest full, plus another smaller box. I just love wood, and how it smells and feels.
