it turns out that you're supposed to have a permit, now, for a backyard fire. thankfully, we weren't apprised of this until a month into the firestarting. (and the firemen were very complimentary about my "clean-burning" fire, apologizing and looking around at the cute boys gathered, while the nosy neighbor who turned me in checked on the progress of his snitching on the sidewalk)
garden diary winter/spring 2011
March 14th
Yesterday I managed to plant some more spring seeds like mustard, kale, radish, etc and dig up some of the garlic chives that have taken over the garden, to make room for transplants. Today I put in transplants - cabbage, brussels sprouts (my fav), chinese cabbage and some snapdragons. I also planted from spring plantings / seeds in the sideyard containers, a first for the sideyard. I'm hoping the brick wall will help some dill and other greens get a head start so we can have a spring and summer full of herbs. I also need to start some seeds indoors, and I did hose off my seedling trays, but have yet to get around to starting the seeds. We have very limited space indoors for that and I can't afford a "real" seed starter set-up at the moment.

Taken early in the morning on the way to work. 8 rows in a tiny tiny side yard that actually receives full sun all day during the summer. Hard to believe there's any sun back here but there is!
Customer previous had us install legacy stone wall and driveway extension and later decided to extend wall into backyard as well as fill in the area with concrete. Wall sits on a concrete footing.

Shot #2 with PX 70 Color Shade.
Somehow my little box system didn't work on this shot and it flew out into the flower bed so it was exposed to bright sunlight for not sure how many seconds (it all happened so fast).
This one's for karmaking. It's a miniature version of Mt. Doom. It was slow, but I got enough speed to do some front- slide slides across it. And, yes; it's very mini!
Weeee!
