Can you DigIt??

Just a quick note… last Tuesday I shared stunning wildlife photography by Nick Brandt with you.  I ordered one of Nick’s books, On This Earth, from amazon.ca on Tuesday night, and it arrived on Thursday. amazon.ca rocks!! And so does Nick’s book!! I highly recommend picking up a copy.

A couple of weeks ago, I filled in a survey on Kimberley Seldon’s Facebook page. One survey participant was going to win a gift basket from DigIt Handwear — and they picked me!! The basket has arrived, and it’s filled with some great gardening goodies…

The basket includes four different pairs of gloves—including one pair of extra-long gauntlet-style gloves—and two pairs of Safety Sunglasses. Seeing as my latest pair of gardening gloves has started to fall apart, the timing is perfect!! The gloves are made from 100% recycled materials and are designed to let your hands breathe while protecting your fingertips.

So now that I have super-deluxe garden gloves and sunglasses for my garden work, maybe my flowers will start looking like these ones ;-) (Images from Flickr)

And maybe my backyard will look something like one of these contemporary gardens…

This Japanese garden is beautiful too…

Or maybe I’ll go for a more traditional garden…

Or maybe a Canadian garden like Butchart Gardens in Victoria, BC…

My house could even get in on the garden fun :-)

A shady spot to sit down and relax after creating my backyard oasis…
