This week I have got to take pictures of the garden. I want to see before and after pictures when I get back. My garden is going to be so happy when I am gone. I am sure I bother every bug and flower when I am around. I weeded and pruned a bunch over the last few days to get things under control. Problem is, I know it will explode while I am gone, and I will have to do all that work all over again. That’s fine. I usually take out a bunch of the Passion vines because they are so invasive, and I know that upsets the butterflies. Now they will be able to live a full month undisturbed. The preying mantis will be happy as well. They always give me dirty looks when I shove my big fat hands in their territory. GET AWAY HUMAN!!!
