I've Been Reminded Of.......


Garden boxes placed over the green
grass that stays that color all
year long.....
 in the Adirondack mountains.
Most of the year nature hides it
beneath snow. 
The summer planting season
is planned well in advance,
having a short  window for
growing vegetables.
Folks very quickly plant  seeds
 and young plants grown from seeds.
Mid summer, if
all has  gone according to plans,
there will be.....
-
"Season For Gathering"
Apples on the trees,
pumpkins on the vines,
 tomatoes and squash
aplenty.
Potatoes needed diggin'
pole beans needed pickin'......
A time 
for aprons,
washing
blanching, 
scalded glass Ball jars
 canning
to display.
Proud filled jars on top shelves.
Soon time for rag bows
brown bags
 sharing with neighbors.

Thank you for the photos T.
Sweet Blessings this day.....Dee Dee
