The last time we visited Alicia Bacon it was December 2013 ( review your memoryHERE ) . A little over a yr afterward , she ’s back to partake what ’s going on in her garden now in the midst of wintertime ! She says,“We had our first measurable snow On January 9th so I went out to take some motion-picture show . When last we appear , there was a wad of talk about our work on make up our " privateness wall " on the west side of our place . you may see that we are still working on that!“More information in the captions . Alicia , that shed is adorable . And you ’ve motivated me to at last invst in some evergreen and a witch hazelnut this class . It ’s just so hard when you ’re standing among all the anthesis stuff and nonsense in the nursery in spring ! Be sure to give us another update this spring , will you ?
