Thyme (Thymus praecox) pictured above shore but there is some in the lawn. Quite common all around the dunes especially on paths. Milder in taste and smell that the cultivated varieties.
Just a bit of hope. Out herb garden on out back deck had this thyme sprig sticking out from under some snow. Too bad it was only January.
This went in a year ago. The soaker hoses snake around, held with wire pins made cheaply from baling wire. The rocks help drain toward a dry well dug 3 feet deep & filled with rock. No more ice rink in winter.

The herb garden called out to me as I came home from a trip to the grocery store.
I had taken my camera with me, as I most often do, in hopes of interest passing my way. The herb and vegetable patch shouted out to me, a island of green in an otherwise brown sea.
I grabbed images of flowers and tomatoes, but this clump of English Thyme (helpfully identified by the plastic marker) stood out. Low to the ground, but with delightfully tiny leaves, it is a treat for my eyes, as well as for my tongue.
