A Gardener's Diary




This is an occasional feature I wrote for another, now-euthanized blog, Waldo At Home. It had a modest following and I had a request to save the old entries. So rare is any comment on anything I post, I could hardly say no.

I make no claims to any expertise or insight. These are just passing thoughts on life and dirt. The most I can say is they are a barometer of sorts to my moods. When I write more, I am generally happier than when I write less. But that's just me, not a reason to read any.
