Oops + Spider

Well, the aforementioned non-smoker's veggie garden has officially died.  That tomato I was so proud of ripened before the plant died - mind you, it was supposed to be as big as my fist but it was the size of a regular cherry tomato - was completely nasty.  So we'll try again in the Fall.

The rest of the yard is going well.  The back is completely overgrown, because I cannot seem to get the dogs to mow the lawn, try as I might.  The front garden is huge and fluffy and green, and I love it!   I haven't been doing any actual projects in the yard of late (mostly been working on house stuff; see other blog), but I do have a couple of photos:

A juvenile Green Lynx Spider on my roses in the front garden

Front porch with new light fixture (what I've been working on this week),
and the aforementioned rose + spider on the left

I AM NOT EVEN KIDDING.

That's not a camera trick.  I'm not holding the yardstick like a foot in front of the plant between the plant and the camera.  HUGE flowers, omg!  YAY!




Yeah, that's all I've got.  I'm a terrible blogger.  Look at the flowers again!
