Seeds in the Soil

I am planting cabbage seeds to be grown up under gro lights in the basement. They don”t look like much, rather like a tray full of potting soil and a marker that says “cabbage”.  Eventually, they will be transferred to the main garden and grow until harvest.

Walking

Yesterday, I took Bentley on his lead, and we walked a mile. We walked slowly and carefully. This would normally be no big deal. But to me now,  it was a very big deal. Six weeks ago, I fell and fractured a vertebra in my back.  I am so grateful for the prayers and to […]
