Behind the Bush in the Garden

That's where you would have seen me this morning! I spent some time in the vegetable garden, pulling out weeds that were way out of control. There's plenty more work to do out there, but this morning's efforts yielded a fine sense of accomplishment that will yield produce in the near future.
We decided to host a "Family Pot-Luck" this afternoon, and invited as many family members as we could on short notice... it was great fun! We had an assortment of food, lots of visiting and catching up, fun watching Avery and the kittens, and generally enjoying the fact that we're able to get together. We finished up with strawberry shortcake (using as many biscuits as were left after they were "discovered" at mealtime, haha...
Last night we danced in Belfast to Wild Asparagus on their Maine summer tour. It was fun to use our new listening skills to their caller and their music... hmmm, can we possibly ever sound like that? You never know, but it's good to have inspiration to work toward...
Behind the Bush in the Garden is in the Portland Collection.
