Who Let The Dogs Out?

May 31, 2015 by Ogee

Who let the dogs out? Well, actually, I let some of them out, interrupting gardening chores today to help get the dogs out while most everyone was at the Reunion Picnic. Once a year, Homeward Bound takes over a local park where dogs from the “Class of 2000” on come together. It’s a great opportunity to see the results of our work in the happy faces of the adopted dogs and their humans. Here’s one group courtesy of my friend, […]

Going Home Parade

May 24, 2015 by Ogee

It’s beginning to look a lot like summer, with the return of the Asiatic lilies, daylilies… Monarch butterflies, and snakes. There is just one thing missing: my dahlias! When I last saw them, they were healthy, six-inch tall plants shooting rapidly skyward. Upon my return this weekend, they were barely stubs. Maria says they fell prey to snails. I’m not so sure that bunnies weren’t involved. There certainly are enough of both in the garden. Do you think we can […]

Back to Reality

May 17, 2015 by Ogee

Back from an adventurous week on Kauai and returned to a whirlwind of work and house guests. Among them was my sister, Beth and her husband, Gordon. Their stay was brief, but good – with a request to see Homeward Bound and the Memorial Garden which they have known only virtually. We made our way there Friday, where the garden is beginning to look a lot like summer… and the puppies put my sister through her paces. Yes, those are […]

Allerton Garden: Kauai

May 10, 2015 by Ogee

Protected by the great wealth and social standing he was born into, Robert Allerton lived a sheltered, but secret life. When public sentiment threatened his future, he and his adopted “son” and lifelong companion, John Gregg Allerton, found peace, privacy, and sanctuary on Kauai. In 1937, he purchased an 86-acre valley complete with a pristine beach for $50,000. Together they built a magnificent garden which they maintained until their deaths and left in trust. In the early 1990’s, management was […]
