First real rain

We had some showers about a month ago, but this is the first real rain of the year. Reflections of the basil plants in the rain.


I think it's going to be a slow Halloween. It's going to be raining all weekend and maybe into next week.

The dirtiest dog... ever & some garden pictures

A lot of good it does to wash this little dog. She loves to roll around the backyard in the dirt. Then she comes into the house to shake off. Fun.


Developing raspberry. This variety is Caroline. I also planted another variety called Tulameen, but it got a slow start.


I planted a few Basil plants and Thyme that I started from seed.


Finally a honey bee sighting, but there was only one. I'll have to keep an eye on the oregano to see if more show up. More about bees soon...
