Notice that people have little sheds on their plots and plant everything from trees to flowers and vegetables. Bec, there are even garden gnomes...everywhere. I like to walk Tut through and see what is going on. I like to observe which plots have flags of different countries flying on them, or if someone is entertaining. Today I saw a group of four 50-60 somethings having lunch on one of the plots, drinking wine and having a great time! It then occurred to me that we could rent a plot since we don't have a yard for Tut Anthony. Don't worry I would never attempt to garden it as I do not enjoy such tasks. I am not even looking forward to planting stuff in two pots to go on my balcony! Any way, I thought a German woman might like a place to garden for free...and of course Tj thinks I am crazy and Tut will be fine with his long walks 3-4 times a day!
TJ's boss is from our town and said that it used to be full of tobacco fields and known for its gardens. The street that TJ and I live on is called "Am Klumbengarten", which means on the Klumben garden (Klumben is a name, we think). I also think that we live on this street because it could easily be called Heidi Klumbengarten and that is who inspired my German blog! I hope you like the pictures and will come and visit the garden in person!
We are headed to the Weinfest in Bad Durkheim tomorrow and of course I will take my camera and let you know how the wine tastes!
Auf Wiedersehen!

If there are garden gnomes, you can count me in for a visit!
