While it didn’t rain today, the ground was completely sodden and avoiding mud was difficult. My resolve to purchase appropriate footwear deepened… rubber boots… must buy rubber boots. Here is a photo of our 2008 plot:
As you can see, we’ve removed all the remaining plants (except for the strawberries which we planted along the edge, and the raspberries which were already there.) The outline of the raised beds which we removed is visible but other than that — not much left. Okay, a few patches of weeds are there. And the blue plastic cup near the bottom left of the photo? That’s a little “gift” someone’s decided to contribute to the garden. Which is one of the reasons I’m so glad to be moving to another plot — getting farther away from the sidewalk. That cup is not the first thing that’s been thrown into our garden.


Beware the Ides
