summer work . . .

one of the special pieces of my summer this year will be the discovery and recovery of whatever is in what i now know as my back garden. i have rooted around in this part of it and discovered a few odds and ends growing there including a rose bush, a couple of mature hostas, 

a young walnut tree, and several perennials. 

oh and most visibly, an old bird bath and a sorry falling down trellis which i think has morning glories gone wild somewhat attached to it. 

i'm going to cut everything back that needs to be cut back, then weed it out and redefine the beds, bring in soil and mulch and then make some decisons around adding in more plants.

i bet you can imagine my excitement!!!!
