For a Master Gardener, You Make a Great Photographer!

I was complaining to Scott that the six-inch pots which I had helped plant on the 27th of July weren't showing a sign of life. I had volunteered to go to a pot party at the WSU Master Gardener demonstration garden; plant lettuce, spinach and beets; and then bring some of the pots home to nurture. The plants are intended to be part of the Master Gardener demo garden in September at the Puyallup Fair.

I was beginning to wonder whether my good intentions and regular watering were all for naught. Scott was certainly not helpful when he insinuated I make a better photographer than a gardener. I was beginning to think him right. (Did I just put that in writing?!)

So over the past few days, without a vegetable shoot in site, I tended to my other shoots. You might say, instead of the green kind, I was nurturing a garden of memories for those whose photos I took including Bill and Ronda's family.

That was followed the same evening with an engagement photo session for Melissa and Anthony, just three days before his second deployment to Afghanistan.

Monday evening, I spent with Connor on Tapps Island, taking his high school senior photos. What a handsome, likable young man he is!

And yesterday, my other garden project finally starting showing some life. Thirteen days after planting, the vegetable shoots have finally arrived! BonnieKingPhotography.com
