Lovely spot for a vacation, if a little but "up in the air." Did you have fun in that kitchen?
Excellent caption (and haven't we all felt like that on some Fridays!)
That is a very healthy Argiope! We have them all over the flower beds and vegetable gardens. They aren't called "the gardener's friend" for...
If you have freeze heave (the ground freezing then thawing, and freezing again) I'd just let Mother do the work. When we lived in upstate NY we...
Well, welcome from a fellow Texas gardener! We are in central Texas, a bit different from LaPorte, but I'll help all I can. We have a wonderful,...

Welcome back! We missed you but knowing you were having a great (and restful) time made it easier. Looking forward to the photos and description...
