It was another weekend in the garden. Every year I promise myself that I will be better at keeping ahead of the weeds, and every year I disappoint myself. I think if I didn't have a full time job I would be better at weeding... that's what I tell myself, anyway. This year I bought a role of that black felt that you can use to keep the weeds down in flower beds and gardens so I laid that between the rows. It's really light stuff, though, so I put some old hay over top of it. It's not pretty but I think it will do the job (at least, I hope it does the job) You will notice I did not do the middle section of the garden and that is because I can't remember if I planted anything there yet or not.... the spinach may or may not be there... I guess we'll find out soon enough.

On a different note, Art opened up the South barn doors today and there was a bat hanging there. He took it off and put it up in the hay loft- a much better place for sleeping (or whatever it is bats do) The picture is kind of out of focus, sorry about that.
