David Salisbury asked for some pictures of my garden. I'm the world's worst photographer and I'm always too busy to run inside and get the "real" camera, so I wind up using my iPhone. But here are a few that I've taken over the years, in relatively seasonal order.
I'm a woman, a Witch, a mother, a grandmother, an eco-feminist, a gardener, a reader, a writer, and a priestess of the Great Mother Earth. Hecate appears in the
Homeric Ode to Demeter, which tells of Hades who caught Persophone
"up reluctant on his golden car and bare her away lamenting. . . . But no one, either of the deathless gods or of mortal men, heard her voice, nor yet the olive-trees bearing rich fruit: only tenderhearted Hecate, bright-coiffed, the daughter of Persaeus, heard the girl from her cave . . . ."

Beautiful, beautiful pictures.
Love the statue with the Japanese Maple.
So beautiful. That last one looks quite a bit like our back garden right now.
...but where is the guard rail on the steps to your door? Aaargh. :)
Love,

Yes -- very beautiful! Especially the photo with the statue and the Japanese Maple!
Yes -- indeed -- another strong vote for installing a good strong-and-sturdy stair railing at your back door! :)
There is a handrail; its on the other side, out of view in the picture. :)
Wow, lovely!
I appreciate, cause I found just what I was looking for. You’ve ended my four day long hunt! God Bless you man. Have a nice day. Bye
