The south side with our failing Jackman Clematis vine, hostas, and some other plants I don't remember the names of. Maggie was being camera shy.
The west side with Hubs' favorite Concord grape vine, silver mounds, strawberries (not shown), carnations, little purple flowering plants, and my favorite delphiniums.
All the green is now covered in a sheet of snow, with the brim of Hubs' hat visible as he shovels the pattio.
Maggie, feeling slightly tortured that her pampered self has to sit outside in the snow for this Kodak moment instead of inside on the sofa, next to the fire place.
The fish pond con masive algea and covered in snow. If you look closely, you can see two of our larger fish in this picture. We have 17 fish total, but we've only been able to find 7 since it got cold. The sand dollar-looking item is our winter heater.

AAauuughh michelle, don't you worry at all, I do not think anything of the kind, not at all, iam sure you had maybe left comments, I find it happens to me too... sometimes if we have to enter code letters to leave a comment we can easily not realise and just press send!! hence the reason why some of my comments have not been uploaded to some of my othe r blog friends, so n o not at all, I look at your blog too, my daughter is fine ,will keep you updated......Kath and Amy( my daughters name)
Hi Michelle, thanks so much for visiting my blog and leaving such great comments, I love blogging too, I just wish you could come across so many lovely people in real life so to speak! Your garden looks great, I think raised beds are such a great idea, I would love those for growing vegetables in. What about Maggie having to keep posing for the camera, J never gets his meals hot anymore, by the time I have taken a picture for the blog. We have had weeks of rain and high winds over here but for the last couple of days we have had lovely clear, sunny but cold days (no snow though), these sorts of days I much prefer. Will look in again soon. x
I love SNOW!
