who knows. maybe this weekend i can photograph my very own zinnias. god i need to get excited about photographing *something* that is for sure. i have been browsing old images to try to stimulate my enthusiasm. it is SO hard to be enthusiastic about *anything* in the summer - except for central air, ice cold water and sleep. this morning i realized it was my personal hibernation time. i am almost thankful that it is a stay in and work weekend.
thinking of zinnias, my garden is actually growing. the herbs are very large. i don’t really know what to do with them (except for the basil=pesto) but i like them. there *are* zinnias and some are almost blooming! i hope they are big and fat. i planted them too close and it is a juicy clump. we are collecting okra to fry … there are a few mexican midget tomatoes and some bigger ones starting … the squash keeps getting rotty from touching the ground … i can’t figure if that eggplant will grow or not … a couple of peppers. only a couple of hollyhocks appeared and …sniff… no white trumpety things.
it is too bad i forgot to turn off the hose (it has a spray thing with handle attached) and it blew up the other night. i wonder if it can be repaired with that black photo tape?
