After a week of everyone being sick with the flu.
We are trying to get something done around here.
First Jake and Sam. Then Abby and Mike. Then me and Jim, next Dylan and Tyler.
Whitney and Melanie were out of town and Jason stayed away.
Hopefully everyone will start feeling better, the sun will come out and stay out and the colds and flu bugs will fly away with the dark clouds.
Today Jim and I have been working to get things planted.
Last year I planted herbs in my pots close to the house.
I really enjoyed using them. I also dried them and used them through the winter.
Since I had success last year I thought I'd try more this season.
I hope they do well.
Impatiens and tuberous begonias do really well in my garden, because it is so shady.
I love these flowers, epecially together. The Garden Shop close by has beautiful tuberous begonias. I can't find them as pretty anywhere else.
Jim has been busy getting our sprinklers going and putting the vegetables in.
We really liked having fresh lettuce last year, although this year we are planting swiss chard instead of spinach. We are sticking to tomatoes, cucumbers, and carrots, as well as pumpkins for the little ones to pick this fall. Hope our garden flourishes this year. We loved eating fresh salads last summer! Delicious!

Sorry you have been sick. Maybe the fresh air will chase the bacteria bugs away. Would impatiens and begonias do ok at my elevation? Maybe we will be able to plant by the end of May or first of June!
