It has been a little cold and blustery for the past few days. Almost at freezing point. Still, I got my gazebo up on my deck and having the last two days off has been great. I have used my time to the best advantage and I have been surprised that my energy has been as high as it has been (and still is, as we speak).
The buds are coming out on the little tree planted last fall. It still looks a little scraggly but the cedars have survived the winter without any 'winter burn' as they call it here. I really really watered them before the frost last year, having been told it was a good idea to do that. It will still be another month before the flowers can be planted outside though. Yesterday I found two tiny little geraniums...the first of the season...at one of the stores. They are like the ones I got last year and should be much bigger when it comes time to plant them.
I got some fertilizer for the trees and as they are predicting rain this week I guess I should get out there and put some around the bases of the cedars and the new tree. Maybe I can find a picture of something to post. (Well..for the time being, all I can find is this picture of an old pottery piece).
