Today ’s photos are from Deb and Paul Skup . Deb says,“My husband and I have been working on this garden ( He does the hardscaping and some of the veg gardening and I do the rest ) for the past 19 years here in Sturgeon Bay , Wisconsin . We ’ve got 10 Akko of woods out near the Lake Michigan shoreline .
“ Our big project this twelvemonth is place up the fence you see in some of the photograph to keep out the pesky cervid . I cultivate full clock time so there are a few locoweed to be see but most of the metre it does n’t reckon too bad . ”
I ’ll say , Deb ! That ’s a unfermented little pool . And I ’m intrigued by your planetary house – is it stucco ? I love the color . It ’s a great backdrop for flora ! I laughed at the array of bug atomiser lined up on the ledge by the doorway – I have a basketball hoop full of choice by my back door , too . darn mosquito ! On that distinction , anyone have a recommendation for a natural bug repellant that actually works ? I will let out out the deet on a regretful day , but it ’s nice to have an alternative for quotidian role .

- The push is still on – get outside and take some last minute shaft , or compile a few you take up earlier in the season . I ’ll be eternally thankful … . Email them to[email protected ] . Thanks ! * * * *
