New Background

Today we updated the site background with a photo of the garden from May 2012. This is our typical garden, which takes up half the back yard (about 12 feet by 45 feet). Grapes, bamboo, lima beans, tomatoes, zucchini, watermelon, indian corn, broccoli, peas, beets, carrots, bell peppers, anaheim peppers, leeks, onions, garlic, sage, cilantro, lemons, grapefruit, pomegranates, apricots, and more.... The actual vegetable garden is 12x45 but every tree in our yard grows something edible, and the block walls are lined with grapevines, and we have herbs, onions, and garlic growing amongst the roses and iris's.

One of my favorite things to do is photograph all the different shades of green in the garden, and the flowers and fruit, and the bees, and the hummingbirds. Witnesses will testify that the hummingbirds like to stand on the grape trellis wires and watch me work.
