Simple and Not So Simple Summer Pleasures

Simple? Drinking from the hose…

like  water fountain!

Not so simple? Growing tomatoes. I am sure some of you would argue, but I have not been blessed with a green thumb. Luckily, my parents have experience in this area. When I was a baby, we lived in Michigan and my parents had a large garden. And no hot water if I am remembering the stories correctly. The effect was recreated when we moved “back East”, but didn’t hold as we moved into the house they now occupy. Judging by the size of the yard, I guess it was play or plant. Last year they grew tomatoes in their now suburban yard and this year they are expanding00 to include peppers and some beans. Yay! They are happy to have Maia help and she is very serious about it, a the photos show.
