"Earth's crammed with heaven, And every common bush afire with God, But only he who sees takes off his shoes, The rest sit 'round it and pluck blackberries."

A long time ago, when summer was young...

... my kids had all their hair, and we started a garden.

(We were informed that in Iowa we would rarely need to water, but this summer proved to be different.  Still, we enjoyed a lot of garden tomatoes which just so happens to be the most wonderful thing ever.)

Our fellow gardener's took these photos and passed them along to us.















Looking at these photos make me wish that:

1.  We could start summer over again.
2.  I had not cut off all of my kids' hair.
3.  I still had a garden fresh tomato to make a tomato sandwich with.
