Saturday Morning Rain │My Vintage Garden

The rain returned to Northern California. I’m always so happy to have it. Perpetually deficient in the wet stuff, our state can use every drop. 

I took this shot while the sun was just beginning to come up but with cloud cover a few minutes ago. The green of my "victory" herb garden looks lovely with it, to me.

The Hobbit Garden will always be my quest. I’m hopefully getting closer to the Hobbit home and garden I’ve always wanted. 

From the movie, The Hobbit

Tolkien figured out that the best things in life are simple and generally budget-friendly. And made one of his main characters yearn for it amidst great adventures. The vintage garden I aspire to is a Hobbit Garden.

Great Book!

As Bilbo Baggins says in The Hobbit, "I miss my books, and my armchair, and my garden. See that's where I belong; that's home."

I feel the same way.
