I was met with quite a challenge with our weather which has caused me to start over a few times. Well, I'll explain later. In the meantime ~ the tag is to go into your photo archive and choose the 4rth picture from the 4rth folder and talk about what it is. Then choose 4 people to tag!
Here's my picture:
I named this picture "The Guardian of the Pot Zucchini (courgette)".I get plagued by squash bugs some years and find it necessary to move the summer squash out of the garden. I grew a few pots on the porch.
The ceramic frog was given to me by my Mom's friend, Inga, who found him at a yard sale about 2 years ago.
I think he has a rather sinister look on his face ~ what do you think? He looks like he might be able to "kick some squash bug behind" and he's saying something like...."Go ahead, make my day". I was not plagued by the squash bug on my porch that year and we did get a nice little harvest for ourselves.
Now you would think this story would have a happy ending, but it didn't work out that way. I never thought that he might be an indoor frog ~ but I guess he was. I left him in the pot over winter and he didn't fare very well. I would have never thought his beauty was only skin deep. I thought he was ceramic and had been fired in a kiln. I snapped this picture a minute or two ago:

The End. :D
I am going to tag Sylvana over at The Obsessive Gardener, Julie at English Juls, Teresa at Homesteading Tess, and Melissa at Those Northern Skies.
