can’t help myself: a picture post
Posted on | May 28, 2007 |
The garden, underway. Sore arms & DH has a sunburn. Bean played all afternoon with his tractor in the newly tilled dirt. A long way before raised beds and fence posts, but closer than we were. So good to be outside. So good to have a man who, because he know’s my heart is set on having a garden, spends all day wrestling the brute of a tiller about.
I’m heady with delight. With fragrance. With blooming. Everything plunges into growth come the end of May. The short growing season makes everything feel even more astounding and vibrant and urgently beautiful. I cannot get enough.

I love this too, getting myself enveloped in the loam, finding ways to change the landscape. And having a companion to work the earth too–a project that we can both take in and take over when the other needs help. So good.
