Beautiful Bozeman and preparing for winter
Even though I’ve been freelance writing for over a decade, I still become giddy when my articles come out in the newspaper or magazines. Imagine my delight when I received my Dec/Jan issue of Organic Gardening magazine, which included my article on the very Montanan town of Bozeman. We had a great time visiting Bozeman this summer (despite the delays due to rain and cold), and it’s a delight to see the finished piece. Lately I’m working on articles about the wild winter weather we have in store for us; putting up food to hunker down in style during the cold; pruning fruit trees and working on creating your family tree. Plus, I still have to record several podcasts for the Planters Place group. I’m very happy even though the gardening season is short, writing about it isn’t!
