Happy Spring!

Spring brings much opportunity and much work. We're fortunate that we have what is called an "established landscape", but that doesn't mean it doesn't take a lot of work to maintain.

I find myself outside more and more enjoying the beauty of what we've planted. From tremendous Rhododendron and Azaleas (all of which have some sort of significance attached......a birth, a death, a marriage) to Poppy, Chamelia, Rose and Iris. All of the plants in our bountiful yard have been put there with loving care in hopes that they will thrive. And although I get sore muscles, an aching back and sunburned feet making sure that they do, it is all worth it just so we can enjoy the color these plants bring to our world.
