We have a new addition to the back garden. It is a little gnome that has come to live with Arlo. His name is Wolfgang. Hopefully they will get on well and he will be helpful in the garden.

Wolfgang came from Joann Fabrics where they had a small display of Fairy Garden supplies on sale -- I guess fairy gardens are a "summer thing". I procured him for the hefty price of $1.47. I might go back in a few days and see what else they have. I am not sure how the Hubs feels about me building a fairy garden in all the Asiatic jasmine but he hasn't said anything yet so I am thinking he is ok with it since he is the one that decided that Arlo's new home should be in the boulder.
I am hoping that as summer starts to fade and autumn creeps in Arlo and Wolfgang are cozy in their sturdy, boulder home -- no more trees for Arlo -- he was very upset when the tree fell -- oh my goodness, the things that came out of that little gnome's mouth -- shameful.
So, there you have it -- Arlo and Wolfgang in their new home. Hopefully there will be more additions to the "garden" in the future.
