Swiss Chard

Swiss Chard by Turtle & Dragon
Cool season crop - October 2013
Planted a few cool season plants, swiss chard, cauliflower, collard greens and kohlrabi. Shall see how they fare. We cut back the tomato plants in September and a couple of the plants are fruiting again. It wasn't a very good summer season in the raised beds, I didn't water enough which was the biggest factor.
Will make an attempt to post more regularly, sorry about the absence.
Enjoy the journey.

Hello...

A Winter Morning By Ted Kooser

A farmhouse window far back from the highway
speaks to the darkness in a small, sure voice.
Against this stillness, only a kettle's whisper,
and against the starry cold, one small blue ring of flame. 

From Delights and Shadows (Found at Eat This Poem)

Looking forward to:
The Luminaries by Eleanor Catton
Made By Hand by Lena Corwin

Loving the new work by a dear friend - otchipotchi

More soon.
Enjoy the journey.

Hello Autumn!!!

Startled I by Turtle & Dragon
Startled - Canada - November 2007

We have had some rain, cooler temperatures and the most beautiful moon in the night skies these past few days. It is certainly beginning to feel a bit like Autumn is on its way. Warmer temperatures will return later in the week but this glimpse has been just what we needed.
Hope all is well wherever you are.
Enjoy the journey.
