That's for half runner beans. The beans loved it. We also used hay bale string laterally (no in photo). The beans loved to climb on them.

Well, we get 'em. We deal with them, be it ever so severly at times. We have problems with black widows, rabbits and turtles too. Keeps you busy.

Just a few more memories to pass along from this year's blessings.

I'm thankful that I was able to do this, with a lot of help from hubby.

We started our garden back up in 2008. It was painful and difficult and not as big. So I know I'm so much better than last year. I do pace myself and manage by thinking my way through the challenging parts.

I am blessed...

That is one great footie dootie you've got there! LOL

I have socks like that too, only they are not red.

The scale of that garden is enormous. I am very impressed with you. Especially all that canning and putting up of your harvest!

Where we vacation in summer, the locals put up wire fences around their gardens.

We have on the shore, crickets, grasshoppers, slugs, voles, rabbits, and the pesky DEER. Not much is left for us...we are lucky if we have 1/2 of the flowers survive. I put out a natural biological thing from a University that prevents the grasshoppers from reproducing, so that did help some. It took 3 full years to show improvement. The grasshoppers could eat a whole flat of seedlings in one day before. My son and I used to follow them around with a fly swatter and rock. I'd stun them and then bean them with the rock.

Next year I am going to do some herbs. The deer won't bother chives or catnip (which I have so far). I am going to add others to see if that helps some.

I love seeing other peoples' gardens. Thanks for putting up those photos.

They are inspirational. (except for the 'kraut! )
