saturday snapshots

 wow! what day! It is late, and I am barely keeping my eyes open.... Just soaked in a lonnnnnng bath and am about to hit the hay with a heating pad ... 
we tilled and then bedded the garden plot....
compacted burn piles and we are close to being done for the year with them! I think we may have two more big ones before Spring hits...
isn't this exciting? and beautiful? and ohhhhhh how I love the smell of fresh earth! 
burn, baby, burn!



cleaned up all the horse manure form the fields....

cleared the path through the pines....
clean burned this ditch.....
 the 'life oak"....
 backside of the property... a year ago, this was completely inaccessible. 
 bedding for crops.....

 ...cut the lower limbs from these trees, but still have so many more to trim up....
 oh, how pretty! I am going to have a big lesson this year. And I have a feeling I am not gonna like it at times, but hoping to learn, grow, and respect gardeners much more after this first year of interning in this large garden...
 ...still lots more to do. It's all about the tedious cleanup around all the rest of the trees now. 




 I can't wait to continue to document how this project goes throughout 2018! Have a great Sunday!! oh - today was national chocolate cake day, so I guess tomorrow's sweet treat will be chocolate cake! Yummy.
