phhhewwww

Made it.  All the excitement is over.
Georgia, Matt, Oscar, Remi, Kit, Lola and Lola's dog Egg came for lunch on Thursday.  I was at a big clean-up for Friends of Triabunna Reserves so the poor things more or less had to cater for themselves.  I did buy them icecreams on our stroll to Pelican Walk where we threw sticks for the dogs, and Jill PD tried to teach Egg to fetch.  They are obviously both out on a mission in the photo above.

An impromptu and, for some, surprising photo of my paper-making pals.  We did a workshop on Saturday.  That night was the Dan Kelly extravaganza.  I took no photos but it was a great night and I suspect Triabunna will indulge in Parlour Gigs again.  Sunday was pack up after DK show and help the PUBS people box up books ready for the next book stall.  Then collapse for a while.

So now I can show you the garden a bit.
some intriguing black irises emerging


the self sown bed with a hint of hollyhocks this year

raspberry patch

rhubarb patch

pink eye potatoes emerging in an otherwise self-sown bed



the vegies

Gold Bunny rose finally looking happy

the lemon tree I'm trying to bring back from the brink

one of these is Miner's Lettuce and one is Corn Salad


last of the radishes, waiting to be taken over by tomatoes

broadbeans, peas, broccoli and sundries 

It's a good year for poppies and artichokes.

a trickle of chives, as Edna W would say


Angel Face rose
