Yesterday the woman who spoke about composting was truly an inspiration. She was trained in another field, but in her late forties she decided to go back to college to get her Masters degree in soil science- I love it! (I especially love it because I turned a year older this week).
So today as I got home from a little shopping (went out to get some plant/tree guides of course) I took some pictures of green outside~

One thing about living here is that while is does get a little cold, it doesn't get cold. It's a very green place, really almost year round (hence the rain as well-but there's sun today, yay!-we take it when we can get it). Perhaps this green place is a great place to learn about gardening-maybe it's "growing" on me-pun fully intended!
Oregon sounds like Ireland! I love hearing about your class. I always think of you on Wednesdays all surrounded by green. By the way, I went to our favorite place today and bought a purse and a Fisher Price castle and a stuffed frog (because we clearly need more of those!) and a little plastic alien all for $7. :)
ReplyDeleteOh, wow! I didn't realize you moved that far away. Luckily you've always had a green thumb so I know this class is right up your alley. I'm glad to see you're finding your niche there.
