Allotments

To dig one's own spade into one's own earth! Has life anything better to offer than this?

(Beverly Nichols)







The highest reward for man's toil is not what he gets from it, but what he becomes by it.

(John Ruskin)

  1. These are wonderful. Makes me want to get out and dig in the dirt. Spring's coming. I love the quotations you use here, too. I'm a huge collector of good quotes.

    They remind me of picking beetles off the roses into a glass jar...
    And getting a penny for each one!
    nothing like it...
