Spring has finally come to Upstate New York, this could explain why I haven’t had a post up in so long….enjoying the sunshine!

Garden Dreams…..

I know it’s just the beginning of January…… but the seed catalogs have been arriving in the mail and my thoughts are turning to dirt, or what I will plant in it this year anyway.

Where to begin!

I was thinking of my garden the other day and a song popped in my head from my childhood, that I can’t stop singing.  My grandmother, whose house we now live in, would play her piano and sing this song called,  “I Come To The Garden Alone”.  This has stayed such a strong memory that as I write this it’s as though her and her pink piano are still in this living room with me.  So for those of you who don’t know this song, I went searching for it.  I’ve found a slightly different rendition than my “Gram’s”, but nonetheless a good one.  So enjoy some tunes while you browse some of my last year’s garden shots…..
