Nine-year anniversary: best of INWIG 2018

>> Tuesday, March 5, 2019 – best_of

According to Blogger I made my first blog post on March 5, 2010 which means today is my nine-year anniversary! One of the main reasons for creating this blog was so I'd document everything I did in the garden, and although I've slowed way down over the past year with less frequent posts, I've still captured some important moments. Hopefully I have still given some entertainment and knowledge to you, my readers over the past year. (Or several years if you've been reading for a while or went back to discover older posts).

Today, as I've done every March 5 since I started, I'm going to take a look back over the past year and list my favorite posts in chronological order. If you haven't seen them before please take a look. If you have seen them already, then take another look -- it's still fun! I did this type of post on my previous anniversaries too, and I really like the way they turned out. See them all here.

Seven-year anniversary: best of INWIG 2016

>> Sunday, February 18, 2018 – best_of

Hey, I only just realized that I never did a "best of 2016" post last March! Here it is, only 351 days late!

According to Blogger I made my first blog post on March 5, 2010 which means ~~today~~ is my seven-year anniversary! One of the main reasons for creating this blog was so I'd document everything I did in the garden, and I have to admit I've done a pretty good job of that. Did I list every detail of every task I did? No, certainly not. I missed lots of stuff, including some important details such as what exact varieties of veggies I planted, spacings, fertilization schedules, etc. but I also shared a lot of things that I would normally have just observed and enjoyed for myself, and have hopefully given some entertainment and knowledge to you, my readers.

Favorite photos of 2012

>> Monday, January 18, 2016 – best_of

It's three years late, but since in every year's "favorite photos" post -- which I did for 2015 on Friday -- I say "I didn't create a favorite photos post for 2012", I decided to do something about that.

January 2012: Yucca filamentosa curls

So I went through all of the 2012 posts this weekend and have chosen my faves. I'm assuming that what I chose now is what I would have chosen in January 2013, but maybe not. Enjoy! (Remember that these are my favorite photos, not necessarily my favorite posts, which you can browse using the "best of" buttons at the right side of the page.)

Favorite photos of 2015

>> Friday, January 15, 2016 – best_of

Every January I like to select my favorite photos from those that I took and posted about during the previous year. So today here's my look back at 2015, and the photos that I like the best. Note that these are not necessarily my favorite posts -- I list those in March on my blog's anniversary date.

January 2015: just the right light to capture seed heads and more

If you see something that you particularly like but don't remember reading about, use the "archives" listing on the right of this blog to browse for it. Links to previous "best photo" posts at the end of this one. Enjoy!

Five-year anniversary: best of INWIG 2014

Favorite photos of 2014

>> Friday, January 16, 2015 – best_of

In January I like to show you what photos I think are best from the past year. It's not a list of my favorite posts of the past year -- that comes on my anniversary in March -- but it is a gallery of the photos I'm most proud of.

January 2013: the frozen pond can be so pretty

Four-year Anniversary: Best of INWIG 2013

>> Wednesday, March 5, 2014 – best_of

According to Blogger I made my first blog post on March 5, 2010 which means today is my four-year anniversary! One of the main reasons for creating this blog was so I'd document everything I did in the garden, and I have to admit I've done a pretty good job of that.

I missed lots of stuff, including some important details such as what exact varieties of veggies I planted, spacings, fertilization schedules, etc. but I also shared a lot of things that I would normally have just observed and enjoyed for myself, and have hopefully given some entertainment and knowledge to my readers. This past year was a bit different, in that I also heavily documented our two-week roadtrip to Yellowstone -- so it went way beyond my own garden.

Favorite photos of 2013

>> Tuesday, January 7, 2014 – best_of

I like to do a wrap-up of my favorite self-snapped photos of the past year in January. For some reason I forgot to do it last year, but I did it in 2011.

January: art deer

So here are my favorite photos of 2013. How many of them do you remember?

Roadtrip: Index

>> Monday, October 21, 2013 – best_of, travel

Our August RV roadtrip was a wonderful vacation, although at times not as relaxing as we would have liked. Still, there was so much discovery and beauty on this trip that it has to be one of the top trips of our lives to date.

Since I wrote so many posts about this 2-week span, I decided that an "index" post where you (and I) can have easy access to all parts of this adventure would be a good idea. So this is it.

I had a hard time picking a photo to use here, as how do you summarize all that we had seen with one image? This one does a pretty good job though, saying "beauty", and "nature", and "adventure", and "exertion" all at the same time -- at least to me.

A view from above, 2010

>> Friday, August 23, 2013 – best_of, bird's-eye view

No Internet access, so no new posts. Back in 2010 I put a camera on a long pole to get a different look at my garden.

This worked so well, I really need to do it again!

Kittens, 2010

>> Thursday, August 22, 2013 – best_of, kittens

Without Internet access, I'm doing a few posts from back in the early days of this blog, some of my favorites.

It's impossible not to include one of the kitten posts, as every garden needs a little bit of fuzzy to complement the greenery, rocks, and wood, right?

Storms, 2010

>> Wednesday, August 21, 2013 – best_of, clouds

Remember I don't have Internet access right now, so here's a look at one of my favorite posts from a few years ago.

I haven't been able to photograph stormclouds like this for a while. I don't know if that's a bad thing...

Three-year anniversary: Best of INWIG 2012

>> Tuesday, March 5, 2013 – best_of

According to Blogger I made my first blog post on March 5, 2010 which means today is my three-year anniversary! Three years of daily posts? Yep. Since I think about gardening every day, why not post about it every day too? One of the main reasons for creating this blog was so I'd document everything I did in the garden, and I have to admit I've done a pretty good job of that. Did I list every detail of every task I did? No, certainly not. I missed lots of stuff, including some important details such as what exact varieties of veggies I planted, spacings, fertilization schedules, etc. but I also shared a lot of things that I would normally have just observed and enjoyed for myself, and have hopefully given some entertainment and knowledge to my readers.

Today I'm going to take a look back over the past year and list my favorite posts in chronological order. If you haven't seen them before please take a look. If you have seen them already, then take another look -- it's still fun! I did this type of post on my previous two anniversaries too, and I really like the way they turned out. Expect it every year.

Two-year anniversary: INWIG best of 2011

>> Monday, March 5, 2012 – best_of

According to Blogger I made my first blog post on March 5, 2010 which means today is my two-year anniversary! Two years of daily posts? Yep.

One year anniversary: INWIG best of 2010

>> Saturday, March 5, 2011 – best_of

According to Blogger I made my first blog post on March 5, 2010 which means today is my one-year anniversary! Although I had some trouble the first week or so posting correctly and missed a couple of days, I quickly got into the swing and posted every day after that. One of the main reasons for creating this blog was so I'd document everything I did in the garden, and I have to admit I've done a pretty good job of that. Did I list every detail of every task I did? No, certainly not. I missed lots of stuff, including some important details such as what exact varieties of veggies I planted, spacings, fertilization schedules, etc. but I also shared a lot of things that I would normally have just observed and enjoyed for myself, and have hopefully given some entertainment and knowledge to my few loyal readers.

Today I'm going to take a look back over the past year and list my favorite posts in chronological order. If you haven't seen them before please take a look. If you have seen them already, then think of it as a rerun of your favorite show... or better yet a "best of" clip show. There's a lot here, so take your time.
