New gate

After some years of use the garden gate had seen better days. The main problem was it sagged, and the latch was not working properly any longer. So between us we devised a replacement, a better working and better looking gate. I should have taken a picture of the "before", it was just a continuation of the lattice fence.

Here is the new gate. It looks great, and works great too. I will have to grow the-best-ever-garden to match this effort. Some Asian greens are already sprouting, and there are seedlings in the cold frame.



The blooming tree is a peach that was just about carried off by the bees and other pollinating insects. Its neighbor, which bloomed earlier, is already showing tiny peaches. No more frost, please.

What a great gate. It looks like the entrance to a 1000 acre "spread".

And, peaches? On your own trees. That's beyond cool.

Three inches of. wet snow today here. Arrgh!!
