Tap Visiting

This little dog loves to play in the grass. He is very sweet. Tap is from www.diamondjs.net
At his new home there are organic garden boxes. He will watch all of the planting, weeding, and the harvesting!

Adventures

As we look back on our adventures of life we remember the many interesting places we have been. All were even more interesting than their names. There is a lot in a name of course but we need to go and see for ourselves! Remembering some places we went in Ontario, I think of Thunder Bay, I liked the name! The Great Lakes were beautiful and interesting. The St. Laurence River, and the Thousand Islands were fascinating. As a child I thought all of those islands, and the boats parked at the docks were wonderful. The cabins and homes on them, looked quiet and peaceful.
It was just as interesting everywhere we went. My parents were always on the go. In British Columbia there was the Peace River country. My Dad liked to go north so I have missed most of the south!
A few years later there was a visit to Victoria that was fun. I especially liked the castles, and the gardens. Unfortunately there was not enough time to see everything.
Last night we were talking about fishing and I think Sund's Lodge on Malcolm Island, at the north end of Vancouver Island, looks inviting. Their video tells a lot. There are cabins to stay in also.

Add some rabbit pens to your garden area. Rabbit manure can be applied to your garden soil and you will have some adorable pets!

Dogs and Organic Gardening

We love to have a garden and through the years it has been a learning experience. The addition of compost, leaves, and manure are a must. Our dogs always check what we're doing right from the beginning, when we first begin to dig. There is much to be said on this subject of gardening! I have found an interesting site at www.organicgardening.com
One year our dog Charlie Brown, a Terrier mix, helped harvest some little cabbages. As the children sat in the grass dipping cabbage leaves in mayo and munching them down, he joined right in.
Many weeds were pulled with a dog sitting near by.
Digging potatoes was a game for Moe,our Yorkie-poo. He would race around barking as we dug and potatoes appeared. One time he grabbed a potato and ran around the yard with great delight!
