Hi Jeanne,  I have been keeping a garden journal since 1983 and it is fun to
look back and see what the weather was like, what veggies and flowers I was
growing and how I dealt with garden problems.  I also record any big
projects such as building structures (fences, arbor, pergola, greenhouse),
creating new borders, or taking down trees after a storm.  I make a least
one entry a month the year around and always record the current temperature
and weather.  Of course a major ice storm or big wind or the wettest May in
recorded history gets a special entry.  I write about favored plants and
unfavored plants as well.  The idea is to just have fun with it :).  Marilyn
