 Thank you Rob and Chaun for hosting Thanksgiving. Can't beat the view! Or the weather!

Back in Water Island

Image
 Well it got a little too cold in Oklahoma for Sis so we headed back to the islands for the winter. Our plane from Oklahoma City to Atlanta got delayed by a mechanical so we had to spend the night in Atlanta. Sis did really good on the plane. Only one accident in the Atlanta airport.

New and improved garden

Image
 I have been expanding my Mom's garden. I cut a tree down and got rid of some of the fence which almost doubled the garden in size. We built a trellis out of hog panels for the plants to grow on.   It's almost 40 feet long and 7 1/2 feet wide. It doubles as a greenhouse during the winter. Come May the plastic comes off and it's trellises only. I also built a raised bed with a hoop house for the winter and a cold frame. I also built a irrigation system. There is a manifold that connects to a garden hose. Then there is a valve to each pipe in the picture. I drilled a lot of holes in the pipes to water the garden.
