After the rain

(old plow outside cabin in Placerita Canyon on our day after T-day hike)

I was worried that after the sudden rainfall last night, my little garden box would be drenched and become a giant mud puddle. When I went outside this a.m. (after my coffee and morning paper, of course) I was very happily surprised to find that the spongy rich soil performed exactly as promised and that many tiny sprouts had appeared while we were away for Thanksgiving!
So we now have kale, peas, greens (trying to get that "oats, peas, beans" rhythm going there), basil, onions and radishes vigorously growing in my little box :~)

(one week after planting seeds and starter plants)
