May Happenings

May has been a fantastic month. Blue and Bailey certainly add  entertainment to our lives.They are fantastic dogs with very different personalities and a few quirks  we have to iron out.
The garden is coming to life. The weather has been great except for the 3 days with over 30 Degree Temps. Dogs and I don't like heat.Back to normal temps and very pleasant weather.




I had raised these seedlings in small pots in the house. Then they were put in the shed and gradually hardened to go outdoors. At this stage I brought them in every night.


I am very proud of my garlic

 on cooler days and at night plant go into shed


lettuce and radish

this has been the year of the violets.They were in adorable abundance everywhere.


 my Mom called them " my violets"
