Dreaming


A little garden in which to walk, and immensity in which to dream.
~ Unknown


We live in a wonderful neighbourhood with hundred year old maples that surround our house and line our street. It's cool and leafy...and very shady. So shady that gardening isn't really possible - at least not on our lot. And I have been dreaming about a little space where the kids could grow some vegetables and I could plant some herbs and tomatoes and maybe even a berry bush or two.

So today we met at our local community garden to see what plots may be available. We were foiled a bit by the weather and a communication glitch so we wandered and dreamt a bit more and then Em and I made our way to the garden centre where she spent some time dreaming about planning her own chef's herb garden.
