Sunday Funday

Adam had a day off on Sunday-his only day off for two weeks. So I told him we’d do whatever he wanted.
He wanted to go to KMart…to start another garden.  You see had had planted some seeds in a “jiffy grow”(?) and they had sprouted.  Well we left there with a cart full of dirt and pots.  He was elbow deep on the patio as he mixed the dirts and potted his sprouts.  And now the patio looks like this:

He’s very excited because the beans are really taking off:

And the dogs were of course very curious as to what was going on…and why their viewing space was now blocked.

(ugg maybe I should clean the window!)
Speaking of dogs, I had suggested we take them someplace since they have been cooped up all week.  So while Adam was busy planting I was online looking into the Tampa dog parks.  We settled on Davis Island Dog beach.  The area of Davis Island is very nice and the park is next to a private plane airport and the yacht club.  The beach however needed a good clean up.  But the dogs were happy and Jordan actually swam!! Bruiser did good with the other two dogs and enjoyed biting the waves.




It was cool to watch the police helicopter practice it’s drills!

We ended the day with a trip to PetSmart, where Bruiser was fascinated with the cats in the cages. We headed home for steaks on the grill and a special edition bells I just happened to come across.

It was a good day.

How Does Your Garden Grow?

Well If you name is Stephanie, it grows something like this:

The aloe plant came with the condo-7 years ago- so I'd say it's doing pretty well.  Seeing as I've never watered it. 

The crockery pot had an African violet in it. 

It was a gift from my mother,

who's garden looks like this:

And if your name is Adam your garden looks like this:

Basil, Cilantro, Green Beans and Onion....Chives didn't make an appearance :(

And he was inspired by Grandpa Ray....who's garden looks like this:

Adam's dream is to someday have a large garden where he can grow vegetables like his grandpa does.  By the looks of his mini patio garden (Complements of Kmart) I think he'll be able to do it-just as long as I stay far away.  I don't want my brown thumb poisoning the soil.
