A Gardening Shed! We finally got it home the first of May.....then, I got busy and started planting.....and planting.....and planting!

The vocational school I work at made 8 of these in the Building Trades Class.....the cost.....only $500.00! I love this little building, and now all of my neighbors would like one!

The rest of my gardens are in folders here;

There are 2 pages of pics; the very last few were taken just yesterday....right before the BIG STORM that hit here. Today all my gardens look pretty wind-torn. We had tornado warnings.......lots of driving rain, wind, thunder, lightening, and some hail. A neighbor couple were outside in their yard during the storm and BOTH were hit by lightening......unfortunately, the wife died. .......p:cry:

Lovely piece of property! The shed looks great and just wait until next year when the perenials pop up again! Enjoy it! :D

I too am sorry to hear about your neighbors. That is truly the last place you want to be when a storm is coming - especially when the property is so open like that! What ashame! :(

A lovely yard indeed Petal. So sorry to hear about your neighbor. That is just so sad. The husband must be heartbroken. And devastated.

Thanks for sharing your pictures.

If I was brave enough I'd share pics of my gardening corner - a pile of tools in the garage, near the bikes, near the garbage cans, near all my daughter's, who's a major tomboy, stuff: skateboard, kett car, roller blades, water blasters, etc. Our garage is a mess right now!!! I garden, pull my tools out, work and try to find room again in there! She complains, I complain, and then I say - hey, cars are supposed to go in here ya know....

Enjoy that shed! As you can read, I sure could use one.
