Hobbies! Boy, do I have hobbies....now this is a topic I can really identity with. I had a little problem trying to decide which one I would focus on for this week's post, but when it really came down to it, this is probably my favorite.

Gardening. I have been gardening and getting my hands in the dirt since I was a baby standing at my grandmother's knee. She used to take me out into her gardens and let me smell her flowers and taste the various veggies she grew. I learned at an early age to identity alot of different plants. My mother is also a terrific gardener and I learned a great deal from her.

There's such a vitality in seeing the "fruits" of your labors. Now that I'll be moving from a Zone 5 to a Zone 9-10 (being Florida), I may have to adjust my growing habits. But it should be fun getting to "know the turf", and I may even plant a palm tree in my front yard.

Stay tuned...

Here are some photos of my gardens from years past. I will miss them terribly.
