My photo
Australia
I ran away from teaching to the country to grow veggies. There are also some chooks and a pair of troublesome goats who were so much trouble they had to go! My simple green life isn't always as simple or as green as I'd like...but I keep trying!

Jack ...again

I know I have made reference to Jack, of Jack and the Beanstalk fame, before.  But I can't not mention him again...because I think I must have planted some of his magic beans.

I was very proud, when I constructed a three-metre tall pentapod (it has five legs), for the climbing beans to scale. What I forgot in the design, was that I would never be able to reach the beans at the top.


The photo below was taken at full stretch,
with the camera above my head.
Do you think those beans 
are laughing at me?





Maybe next year I will plant the beans earlier,
drape some tinsel and stick on a star.
