Last week, below, feeding the chickens, an audience arrived. How do animals this large appear at the fence within seconds, no sound? . Our views of neighbor's dairy farm. Soon, when more invasives are removed we'll have views of their lake and rolling Piedmont hills, the last, before the coastal plain. Still moving in, over 3 days almost 50 boxes unpacked. 5 boxes refilled, heavily, and another Goodwill trip taken. . How did I ever live without a front porch? Boxes went to the dump each night. Fear, not tidiness. Did not want boxes sitting, and possibly finding a timber rattler in one. From the boxes, below. Over 90% of china/ironstone unpacked. Dining room has 2 built-in closets, this one, below, was for glass jars of fruit/vegetables. At least that's what markings on the wood shelves report. . The door, blessedly was not painted inside. Made of pine, it has been faux painted, over a century ago, like an expensive wood. Rest of the doors in the house were painted white. Will never know if they had all been faux too. . Shelves, below, go to 11' ceiling/wrap each side, and filled to overflow. . This is solely colored china/ironstone. Agreed, Houston we've got a problem. . On the other side of the fireplace, below, blue/white china cabinet. . White ironstone still in boxes. Painting to be done before unpacking those. Hardly near the top of our action list. We've done nothing, below, to the garden, other than take what I brought from my last garden, a cottage garden, to Goodwill, or place on 8 pallets under a century old water oak. . Driveway, below, a compacted meadow, and narrow. Perfect for us, not our trucks. Drama ahead. . Soon, all foundation plantings, below, will be removed with the Caterpillar. Excepting the camellias, at the end of the front porch, and 2 oleander at my office windows. . Beloved & I wanted to get it done today, but finishing the pantry renovation beckons more loudly. A month living here, I braved my first nail. House is ample, closet space not. Basket on wheels is one of my longest & best employees when I lecture. Files, shredder, printer etc in this closet too. Mentioned above, drama, below. . County permit department came, and we were approved to add another driveway. . No trees will be cut. . In a perfect world this would not be the new drive entry, it affects axis views, cross axis views, & enfilades of placing the new orchard, rose arbor, potager, smoke house. For starters. . What I know, for sure, after 3 decades of studying historic gardens, and designing them, issues in reality always make a garden better. . Form & function. . Beloved needs his driveway, and a barn at its end. . Our new drive will curve, below, it has to, you read the list, above, for this new garden room. . How long before our new curving drive looks like this, below ? . More than a bit impatient. . Life is good. . Garden & Be Well, XO Tara . Top pics mine, bottom pic, Pinterest.

Often people make the mistake of thinking of art as something that is to do only with the senses and nothing to do with practicality. People who think like this are right in thinking that art can please the senses and wrong in that they think art has no practical use. Did you know that some arts have practical uses? In fact, when you consider aspects like elegant backyard pond ideas, you can see both the practical and artistic aspects of art. In fact, it is a good idea to involve younger people like teenagers in practical projects that also involve art to ensure that this aspect of their personality develops as they grow into adulthood.
