Images of spring

The first tree to bloom, our weeping cherry


With all the snow and cold this is the first chance we have had to cleanup from the winter, There is still a lot of work to do but things are looking better.

Butterfly from last years garden

Pictures from a wayward camera



Last year was a good year for butterflies but I had little time to take pictures. But here is one who posed for the camera.
Zennias are a cheap easy flower to attract butterflies.

Is it spring yet?

I'm betting on spring, the ground was dry enough that I could till the garden this afternoon





I planted lettuce, radishes and beets. Maybe it will work and no more snow only nice warm spring days.

Another year

Procrastination
I had a lot of good garden pictures and pictures of a tree service cutting down the large pine in the front yard. but I waited too long and my computer died, bye bye pictures.

So I'm going to try and keep things more current.





last week we finally saw the last of our snow until the next time. I took this picture of tulips coming up through the snow, Now that is optimism

Spring Blooms
