I thought   perhaps I had lost my chance to be part of the community garden then but   I got an email that if I could find the time to come by for some info   and advice they had my spot.  It is a grand spot too, 10 by 20 and  smack  in the middle of the garden.  They have water hooked up all  around the  garden, a shed full of tools for our use and paths around  each of the  plots that they plan to make clear with wood chips soon.   It is so  pretty and it is just dirt so far! Can&#8217;t wait till it fills  out with  green plants and FOOD!<a href=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/-e0kCOH8lG_k\/Te7Uk5Da7LI\/AAAAAAAALws\/h9mbYueOudk\/s1600\/SSPX0952.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;\" src=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/-e0kCOH8lG_k\/Te7Uk5Da7LI\/AAAAAAAALws\/h9mbYueOudk\/s320\/SSPX0952.jpg\" alt=\"\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5615659515633134770\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a>There   where already gardeners filling their plots!

We must have been entertaining to   watch.<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/-k5_O_wNU23U\/Te7Uj69H6tI\/AAAAAAAALwc\/V94Qvl3yMVU\/s1600\/SSPX0956.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;\" src=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/-k5_O_wNU23U\/Te7Uj69H6tI\/AAAAAAAALwc\/V94Qvl3yMVU\/s320\/SSPX0956.jpg\" alt=\"\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5615659498963725010\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a>(Yes   those are the oldest three rolling down the hill and my littlest guy  doing his  best to run without falling head over heals after them.)<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/-0SHZWseuOvM\/Te7SMo0ua7I\/AAAAAAAALv8\/HXYXmCTYxfo\/s1600\/SSPX0950.jpg\"><br \/><\/a>After the good run around on the hill we headed to the park as a reward for the kids letting me do my thing at the garden.<a href=\"http:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/-g1j8841aOGw\/Te7SLrGRKuI\/AAAAAAAALvs\/drdn4Cdagh8\/s1600\/SSPX0960.jpg\"><br \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/-z6RK3GIUsxk\/Te7SNIzuamI\/AAAAAAAALwE\/YVTePhtAKUU\/s1600\/SSPX0949.jpg\"><br \/><\/a>It   felt good to be out and about in the evening.  To be active in our   community on a lovely spring evening.  I look forward to getting the   kids settled in the evenings this summer and running over to fuss with   our plot.<\/p>\n<p>Sure  hope I have lots of chances to bring the kids and  <span>Riddick<\/span> as well so  they can be part of it.  If they continue to enjoy  the bushes so much I  might actually be able to keep them content while I  work&#8230; gotta try  picnics near the garden too and perhaps I will be  able to at least get  the older three involved in the work.  So much to  think about&#8230; hope I  have a chance to get some seeds or plants  A.S.A.P.!!<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/-g-Ma_Suq3o8\/Te7SLQoY1_I\/AAAAAAAALvk\/dBRC3wqAQNc\/s1600\/SSPX0958.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;\" src=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/-g-Ma_Suq3o8\/Te7SLQoY1_I\/AAAAAAAALvk\/dBRC3wqAQNc\/s320\/SSPX0958.jpg\" alt=\"\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5615656876262348786\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a>(<span>Riddick<\/span> and I watching the crew at the park before we headed home for bed time.)<\/div>\n<p><span>TTFN<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(A view of the community garden from the top of our parks sled hill.)
