Poppa & Nana's Gardens

Adam here with another installment of our vacation series. You've seen our meager attempts at gardening in past posts. But we ain't got nothing on Poppa & Nana's house. First off, the vegetable garden is something to behold. Laid out in front of a perfect little potting shed and overlooking the lake, it provides fresh veggies all summer long. There are cucumbers and peppers and squash, of course, but the stars of the show are the tomatoes. Poppa even built the tomatoes their own potting boxes along the dock - these plants have waterfront property, quite literally. Carter especially enjoyed the cherry tomatoes...fresh off the vine and warmed by the sun.

But the gardens don't end there. Behind the house is an herb garden and blueberry patch. Flowers and shrubs are all around the yard...it's overflowing with beatiful hydrangeas.

We plant a few seeds and pick a few flowers from our yard, but we have certainly got a long way to go to catch up with Poppa & Nana's gardens.
