Welcome to our nano piece of paradise!
This is essentially a creative photo blog plus few words. It is about Sandra and Denny's gardens and surrounds. My granddaughter Adelyn calls me "Poppop", hence the blog name. We try to add new images once a week. Older posts are archived at page bottom. Click an image to enlarge. We're having fun. Please! Enjoy!

We have Rather Wetter Weather.

Say that 5 times fast! Yes! We finally had some good luck and have received about an inch of rain in the last few days, which gave the garden a good soaking. Rain water is a GOOD thing! Of course the weeds love it too, so I was out there "weeding" with my rototiller between the plants while the soil was still soft. Trying to do that when it's dry just leads to a big dust storm, and frustration. Our clay soil turns to concrete when dry, and belive me when I say that it is hard to till concrete!
storm clouds...nice!!!!!!!!!!!
