I'm doing garden-therapy. Dirt beneath my fingernails, burst blisterrs on the inside of my thumbs, I'm making my world a beautiful place

Power of the Ocean

I'm currently reading Blue Mind, about water and health. Good stuff.

It all sounds joyful and beautiful, and exactly what you needed, yay!
Got pics of your garden and/or beach? I'd love to see them, if you do.

The New Moon was on Saturday afternoon, and the biggest tides are always a couple of days after the New and Full. It's a 'Supermoon' right now too - closer than usual to Earth - so it's pulling the sea a little harder than usual.

So glad your children came to visit too! Summer is i-cumin in!

I love these posts. Joyful and useful and inspiring. :)

Gardening therapy...good stuff! Been doing a good bit of that myself lately. I sure wish blueberries grew here but alas, it's too hot and dry.

Blue planter

[gwendally]

Okay, I planted the blue planter:

Bib lettuce on both the south and north ends, zucchini on the west side, a broccoli in the middle, and two kale plants where there was a tiny bit of room.

I also added a half-moon of bib lettuce on the west side of the white planter while we wait for the tomatoes to come in.

I am curious to see how this turns out. I am aiming for food I can just pick for dinner, this isn't a "putting food by" sort of garden.
