My Balcony Garden

Living on the third floor of an apartment building

is nice for the view....

and that's about it!

We love fresh veggies, flowers and gardening

so living on the third floor isn't going to stop us.

Here's my garden after transplanting my sprouts.

On this privacy lattice I have Morning Glories

that are beginning to go crazy

looping and spreading.

I also have some spearmint and rosemary on the door.

On this side of the balcony I have 3 different kinds of tomato plants, marigolds,

sweet peppers, basil and rose moss.

Over here we have Jace's cabbage plant that the school gave him, chives, snow peas

and more of everything else.

Finally I have more tomato plants, sweet and hot peppers.

The tomato plants smell so good.

Just those little plants leaves have the most wonderful scent of summer and fresh tomatoes.

Pure Joy and Happiness!

Today would have been my Grandpa's birthday. He died about 6 years ago and I don't think a day has gone by that I haven't thought of him. My Grandpa always had plants, lots of plants, indoors and out. I don't know the official name of this plant, but Grandpa had one that we called a Christmas Cactus and one was a Easter Cactus, thats when they bloomed for him. Mine is in sad shape. I had it outside and I think a bike or scooter handle squashed it a little bit. Still, about 3-4 weeks after bringing it in the house for the winter it bloomed reminding me of Grandpa.

This is my favorite piece of furniture that I have. My Grandpa made it when he was young out of little strips of wood. He shaped it and glued all these pieces together to make this wonderful little stand. It has a piece of wood on the top that comes off and there is a little storage place on the inside. I'm not sure why he gave it to me, but all of my older kids have already claimed it when I die. No pressure there! I am glad that they all love it as much as I do.

Thanks Grandpa for being such a wonderful man and giving all of us such wonderful memories!
