Poor indeed is the garden in which birds find no homes.
- Abram L. Urban
When your outside gardening, especially when things are still a bit muddy, your shoes can become quite dirty. In order to be able to go into the house or garage and not have to take your shoes off, keep a couple of plastic grocery bags handy. When you want to go into a clean area, slip the bags over your shoes and tie them with their own handles. Works very well!
