What a great garden! I can hardly wait to see what you do with a bigger one. Corn, watermelons, okra, six varieties of tomatoes . . . .
I don't know which is more interesting--the photos of the wallabies or the photos of your courtyard garden. "Not quite at its best yet, but...

Donna, I just put a tot of Vodka in my hens' water, and I get pickled eggs (and staggering chickens)! (Sorry, I couldn't resist). I don't have...
