4. We built a greenhouse

It was a pre-fab kit we bought online at the beginning of the pandemic. It came in one of those boxes where everything fits together like a Tetris puzzle. It turned into a wonderful little 8' X 8' garden where Courtney grows vegetables: cucumbers, zucchini, yellow squash, tomatoes and green beans.

We built a gravel and paver stone foundation for the greenhouse and it's been terrifically successful for her. On the deck, she has her herb garden and lettuce as well as a few flowers growing in planters.

The deer are beautiful but stupid. That little foal is now on its own and it's nature at its saddest. We also see bear, bald eagles, hawks, turkey vultures, a white skunk(!), beavers, raccoons, ground hogs, snakes and fish down in the Delaware River. It's nature at its most lovely! Much like the view from your place, elleng.
