baskets


The town hangs these baskets along my street and throughout the town for the summer. I wonder what they feed tem to produce such a profusion of blooms.
Today is a holiday: New Brunswick Day. I think that it is a relic of the old Celtic Lammas, which celebrated the first harvest. For me the first harvest was a bag of beans that I picked from the potager before I left Nova Scotia last Saturday. It will take several days to eat them all.
