Caught Up With Keeping Up

I've been kind of caught up in all the outside work of keeping up with yard work and creating a chicken coop and run, that I haven't been blogging or visiting around for several weeks.  Seems like forever since I've chatted with many of you, so I thought I'd share a little of my yard and what I've been preoccupied with.

View of the back yard from the deck.  I haven't had time to get out the deck furniture yet.
 
 
Looking towards the back through the archway to the vegetable and herb garden.
 
 
 
 
As you can see ~ the vegetable and herb gardens are thriving.
 
 
The garden shed/greenhouse/chicken coop is covered with climbing roses in full bloom.
 
 
The chickens are now living in the coop, and I'll show it to you eventually when it's completely done.  The run is in process and hopefully will be finished in a few weeks.
 
 
And last of all ~ a few blooms around the garden.
 
 
 
Hopefully by the end of June I'll be finished up with these current projects and be able to take a break, sit on the deck,  enjoy the view, and blog a little more often.  Until then ~ hope you're having a happy and productive summer.

Looks great, Cindy!

Been travelling all week- 10 states in 7 days. Just left Biltmore in NC this morning and on our way home.

Was so nice and cool up in the mountains!

I can imagine my weeds are out of control after a whole week of neglect.

Oh so beautiful! Your garden took my breath away...between the reds and those climbing roses! Wow! So so amazing! Hope you can kick back soon to enjoy the view!!!

June is such a lovely month in the garden and I hope you get to relax and enjoy yours. The red and white climbing roses and the matching garden furniture
look good together. You're very imaginative and creative.

What a sanctuary Cindy! It is beautiful!!! I sure wish I could claim being caught up, but I'm not. I haven't mulched the beds or even put out all the supports for the plants that need them :( I know you will enjoy spending the summer among all that beauty.

Is there nothing you cannot do, Cindy? I just love your yard! Can't believe you've made time for chickens too. What a high energy, busy lady you are!
