I decided to grow everything in my front yard this year. I have hollyhocks, moon flowers, morning glories, nasturtiums, vinca, tomatoes, squash, sunflowers, lemon tree, and a couple of other plants growing. They are all doing well for now.
I decided to not plant anything in my backyard garden this year. It was expensive to water last year with the drought. However, I put out water for the wild birds out there, and it's fun to watch them. I have doves, and quail coming in a lot. Assorted other small birds come in too. I forgot to mention, I have a nest of swallows under the eaves of my house in the front yard.
I don't know how much rain we'll have this year. I am hoping it'll be a lot more than last year. Right now, it's sad to see the smoke from a huge fire in the Gila Wilderness. Hope we don't have many of those this year!
