In the springtime, we get a lot of "freebie" dewberries from several vines
growing wild around the property. |
| It's easy to pick a gallon of berries a day after just a few minutes. |

Initially, we planted petunias in the flowerbed between the house and shop. They
provided a nice dash of color while they lasted. |
| One of my favorite views is the back of the house from behind the pond. |

This is an African water lilly. More sensitive to cold weather. |
| The water lillies provide interest to the pond and provide cover for
small fish and frogs. |
