Wild Things

As I sat at the piano the other day,

I saw movement outside.

Four wild turkeys filing past.

I got these pictures from inside the house.

I did go outside, but one glimpse of me, and they turned around, and flew off.

Status Report

Just a few “before” shots, because we are getting ready to rake!

The old pine trees lost a few big branches this winter.

Some life is showing.

Irises and daylilies already starting.

Forsythia nearly out.

Grasses are always a mess to clear away.

Got the golf cart out and ready.

This part of the path will need some weeding work.

Other surprises. I don’t know what it is.

And first 2017 coffee on the patio, April 9th!

Ranunculus

I got a beautiful bouquet of flowers this week from my husband.

I was delighted to find  he had included ranunculus this time.

White and pink ones.  I have been seeing them online, but wondered if our local florist would ever have them.

They are so beautiful.  I have tried to grow them myself outside in the summer, but had little success.

And they never have such long stems as these.

Now that they are becoming more available, I think I’ll skip the planting this year,

and just enjoy a few from the florist this summer.

Spring 2017

It is finally April.  Made it through another winter.

I haven’t been done any work outside yet.

Just a couple of walks to see how the plants made it through the winter.

I always say April is the most cruel month for me.

You think winter is over..

and then this happens.

April 7th.

Thank goodness, I had something blooming inside the house.
