Kerry’s Garden

No great gardening plans were carried out today. I ended up coming home early with stomach issues. After a nap and some medi, I did feel a little better but I am still not sure if it was something I ate, orneriness catching up with me or what. I knew if I accomplished nothing else I had to get outside to turn the sprinkler on the onion/garlic bed. It has been so very dry I was afraid to let it wait even one more day. As I was placing the sprinkler I noticed dirt moving and knew immediately that I had a mole in the bed. I took two quick swipes at the pile and brought up a rather stout healthy (pregnant female maybe?) mole. I grabbed it by the scruff of the neck, not sure what I was going to do next but knowing I wasn’t letting it stay in the garden. I got back to the house, all 4 feet waving (and boy do they have some huge front feet). Thank goodness for large plastic soda cups. I got T. to drive me down to the park a mile or so down the road and I liberated my prisoner but not before trying to take a photo. Wouldn’t you know it the digital camera battery was dead so I put ‘Bubba’ down for a sec to snap a pic with the cell phone. Enjoy your new digs little one.
