Cat ~ you seem to have good views from your gardens ~
What can you see from the house and gardens ?

Thanks the cart is one I had in my store..I put sale items in it and wheeled it in and out of my store..I cannot tell you how many people asked to buy it in my store and at my garage sells I have been having..I finally just moved it to the deck and started working on this area..

I do have lovely views TT...Mountain ranges..Mt. Rainier..the town of Port Townsend...inlets and islands..there have been quite a few sailboat races and regattas lately that I have watched a bit..I used my telescope to see how far they are heeling over..it is amazing they come back upright sometimes..lol..lots of massive cruise ships going past lately too...they go out the Straits of Juan De Fuca to the Ocean from Seattle...Most are going to Alaska...some go south as well or to Hawaii I imagine or even round the world cruises...we had one anchor up that was called The World...people own their cabins and live on that one and all they do is travel the world...!! I love gardening too much..don't think I would like that all that much...

Gosh....what a lifestyle......I wonder how much it would cost to do something like that.....It must cost a bomb.
I love the cart too. It looks lovely there with the ocean in the background.

How wonderful to have that view of the mountains and the inlets and islands... all the while you are gardening... fascinating sights through the telescope :o)

Thanks Gilli and TT..yes it is nice..one thing I do enjoy in the summer...but it is not good for gardening in the fall , winter and early spring really..it is just too windy..the cart and all will have to be moved off the deck..I call it clearing the decks in the fall..or all will be wind blasted into the back wall of the deck and the back fence too....just have to make it all empty...or it is broken and tattered and scattered something awful...

Yes I have been letting the wild Nootka roses grow along the back lawn fence line..not quite tall enough..need something pretty tall...and more than one wall I think too...what do you use..
Thanks Toto..I really like this cart too..
