Beginning

Yesterday was a windy, cool and sunny day.
Could not resist going outside to see what is emerging.

The only rose bush that survived in this damp earth by the woods.  Originally
4 were planted when I relocated 3 years ago.

With the hoe I cleaned about 1/3 of my small garden area.  Spread some
Turnip green seeds and some Egyptian onions have surfaced.
 I have never minded weeding and occasional help does not like to do this.

Preparing pots for herbs.   I would like more this year and this is an experiment.
Cilantro, Thyme, Parsley, Chives, Rosemary, Mint, Lavender and Sage made it through the winter.
I know it is early but could not resist buying a few plants of lettuce and Basil.

A few plants were picked up early this morning from a special friend who has a nursery on her property.  Hopefully in a few days they can be planted.    A lot of plants are surfacing but do not see my Bleeding Heart.   Hope I have not lost it.

Memories of the woods coming to life - soon it will happen.   So much I want to do in the next couple of weeks.   Most of my children and grandchildren  will be visiting the month of April.  I am so excited and just thinking about this makes me smile.....
