Discoveries

Today was spent outside....Gordon did some mowing....I weed whacked....and did some planting and some weeding.  he last few weeks while weeding the herb garden, I've noticed some plants that I thought were our nasturtiums that got moved by the cat, or had gotten pushed down by the rain.

Today I was out there again and I noticed that they were getting bigger, and I wondered if maybe they were mint plants that I had planted last year and they got rototilled somewhere else.

But today, I was looking at them....I noticed that it seemed that the slugs and snails were maybe munching on my sweet little plants, and so I grabbed a leaf and tasted it....it wasn't minty, so I wondered.....I pulled out the plant and I discovered a little radish on the bottom....so....for some reason that I can't even fathom...rogue radishes are growing there.

And the other discovery I made today, while cleaning out the goat house, I was yelling to get the girls away from my strawberry plants (I yelled so loud that Gordon heard me at the restaurant)....so I got them away from the same strawberry plant they have pulled out 5 times so far.....I shut the gate and walked over to my lilac bush.....the prized tree on our beautiful hill.....I noticed that the blossoms are blooming.....what a beautiful acknowledgement of Earth Day......things are coming together on our hill.  Very very excited.
