Well, the spring has sprung, the grass has ris, and we wonder where the birdies is. Just a quick shot of Val working in the garden. This little area adjacent to the building has been given to us to do whatever we'd like to with it. We opted for a garden. Having spent all these years cooped up in NY apartments, it is nice to get out and enjoy some fresh air. We had coffee here this morning and tried to figure out what sort of flowers we'd like to grow. By the fence, we've planted Canna Lilies (not yet up) along with hydrangea, azalea and hosta. I put down the little pathway. Originally, I had placed the large red stones where I stepped from the center of the gate. being over 6'2" , I underestimated the length of Val's gait, so she had to bunny-hop from stone to stone. I put in a fix and placed a smaller brick between each of the larger stones. Hard to believe, last year this space was nothing but weeds and dirt. The large square shape by Val wasn't even visible. The barbecue is used pretty often over the summer, we intend to fire it up next weekend.
