Then and Now

Isn't it funny how time changes things? Last week it was hot and so very dry, but after a day of rain (a little over two inches) everything is green and beautiful again. It made me think about how just a couple of months ago I thought that the winter was going to last forever. I knew it wouldn't, but it just seemed like it would.

I spent some time today looking at some of my late winter posts to see exactly how much things have changed since then. Those of you who have been reading my blog for a while may remember my post about our new vegetable garden. It is hard to believe that we have now harvested some wonderful romaine and broccoli.

Then (early March)


Now (a little overgrown, but producing broccoli)


Then (February, I thought John had ruined my knock out roses.)


Now (His 'tough love' did them a favor)


Then (Our landscaping looked dull and drab.)


Now (It is my favorite place to sit and drink coffee or dine.)


Now (We have baby tomatoes on the vine.)


Now (We have heads of cabbage on our plants.)


One thing in life is certain.....things are always changing!
