A village split in two

There’s a place where the railroad splits a village in two and still tries to remain whole.

She says to me, even Kerouac said that road trips have unexpected turns. He also wrote, “My witness is the empty sky.”

Renovated Main Street

A couple of years ago the main street was ripped up and busy with construction trucks and earth movers. Now it’s quite lovely on a quiet August morning.

Not a traditional print shop

The kitchen not only functions as a dinning room & laundry room… it also functions as a print shop. big thanks to my eight year old child for helping with the woodblock prints.

the south garden (or the pepper & tomato patch) at mid july

1 hot banana pepper plant & 1 jalapeno plant are still struggling to grow in this shady spot. the 4 bell pepper plants began to blossom. i think i may have a few spare dollars to buy additional pepper plants to fill in the empty space in the garden.

something thing attacked the north garden late saturday night, early sunday morning

i’m not sure if it was a raccoon or the groundhog couple that was spotted late last week.

the south garden (or the pepper & tomato patch) at the end of june

since the loss of the spinach plants in may’s excessive rains, i’ve been trying to keep the remaining pepper & tomato plants alive.

for the record, here’s what remains in the south garden: 1 hot banana pepper plant, 1 jalapeno plant, 4 bell pepper plants, 7 red cherry tomato plants.
