Garden Update

by annemariedemyen, posted in 2023

Our yard is coming together, so I thought I would share a few random photos. From day one this year, we have had smoke drifting in and out from Alberta wildfires and I have been fighting off a lung infection that just doesn’t want to let go. Most of the outside work has fallen on husband Dan. If you compare our yard this year with how it has been in the past, there is a clear winner when it comes to landscaping around here. (It isn’t me 😂).

I bought the new rosebush but Dan planted it by the freshly cleaned pond.
It is hard to see, but Dan created the cutest fencing around this corner flowerbed. 💞
Got a little too magical with the gold paint but I love this old plaque and love where Dan put it.
Workout corner – Dan is still working on getting the big punching bag setup together. 🤛
Some cleanup and a fresh coat of paint to the planters coming along – soon!
More detail of the ‘Keep Molly Out of the Garden’ fence that Dan installed. So far so good. 👍

That is about it for today. I will have more photos to share as the season progresses.

Take care and have a beautiful SUNDAY! 🌞💞

  1. The Molly fence looks good, I hope your lungs will be okay, Anne Marie. I’ve seen videos on New York and other cities back east that have been hit very hard by the wildfires in Ontario. Terrible!

  3. The garden is coming along nicely! I have done squat on my yard other than mow so far this year. It just seems like one mess after another of late, but I guess it has always been a bit (or a lot!) of that.

  4. My effort is generally round up plants and stick them in pots. 😂. Dan’s far more on the ball yard wise, but he is usually too exhausted from work to deal with it. He has been laid off since February so he’s getting bored now and feeling way more up to it. 💖

  10. Sure hoping your lungs heal and you are doing better very soon, Anne. The fence looks great and all the plants are beautiful. It is nice to see beautiful plants, as I have none right now.

  24. I first thought you were keeping out deer or bear, both frequent around here. I can see why Molly-proofing would be a good idea. After learning what she did to that cushion, I have new respect for her destructive potential!

  26. A moose wandered onto our airport runway last week. Beavers abound at the nearby river. One peaceful canoe trip a loud splash made us jump as we saw we had been very near one.
