I guess that's spring in Denver!
Last week was much warmer and today it was in the 60's. Jessica and Bob and I planted our container garden this afternoon- we decided not to dig up the whole back yard just yet.
Strawberries, green peppers, zucchini, cucumbers, carrots, rhubarb, beets and a LOT of tomatoes - all in pots and window boxes to give us yummy vegetables all summer!
And I thought Inu had destroyed my raspberries in the back, but they seem to be popping up quite nicely. Bob built some chicken wire cages and that seems to be keeping the dog from digging up all the new shoots.
Of course, it's supposed to rain all night and maybe snow tomorrow. So for now, the garden lives in the garage while my car stays in the driveway. Oh well, Colorado has taught me that the weather will probably change by tomorrow anyway!
Benjamin wasn't very happy today, but he did well watching the History Channel with Justin and playing with the kitties while we did our gardening. He isn't talking much yet, but I love it when he blows me kisses!

So, tall pots for short rabbits? Or will your menagerie keep the wildlife at a distance? Want to borrow my pellet gun just in case? The planters look great! Do you think the rocks will be too hot when summer comes?
