So. Pictures? Here's a few, plus there will be more later in the week. I didn't take this first one, obviously, but it gives some indication of the level of wet we're dealing with.
My yard is at last green (and yellow, a little purple and red too but mostly green.) All my fruit trees survived the winter, as did all the roses and all but one peony. Deep snow cover is good for something!
Today I think I'll let Simon take me to Lowes to perhaps pick up another tree (or 3) and some other fun things. I can honestly say at this time of year I'd rather get Lowes or Home Depot gift cards than a certificate to the fabric store or dinner at a fancy restaurant. That might be true anytime, actually. :o)
So, let's try this again, hmm?
