of my reblooming Iris today. Saved a few iris and lilies for my son. Plus dug a Mexican Sage for him as well.

Then found that my Plumbago had made two good plants so I transplanted one of those. I hope it does well. That has become a favorite plant of mine. Both of these are at the posts to the carport where you can see them all year. They bloom from early summer right into frost.

Want to hang my hummer feeders tomorrow just in case they come around a little early just like daylight savings time and the Easter season is going to do.

Then will be cleaning out from behind my shed, getting rid of some old wood and broken down stuff. Does everyone have a messy place like that? You come across something during the summer and just toss it behind the shed and then soon it is a real nasty looking place. Hope to have a little help from a teen this year.

Then the young grandson has said he wants to help me do some painting on the new wood on the shed. May even paint the white trellis as well.

It is just so good to be able to be outdoors for a bit.

More to Come Later

garden98011	Mar 4, 2008 \| 6:57 PM PST Hahaha-"does everyone have a messy place like that?" I am certain we all do, world-wide, mine is the second garage bay and under the deck-very obscure. They both drive me nuts and when Spring hits full throttle, they both get cleaned out. Enjoy the help of your grandson and thanks for reminding me to get my feeders our. best~Andrea
bsmitch	Mar 4, 2008 \| 11:05 PM PST Busy,busy,busy. You sound like my wife. She gets on a tear and she is like a mad woman, rearranging this, cleaning out and raking until her face is red. I have to make her quit and rest, because the next day it hits her. Because of my radiation damage, I can't go at it like that any more. I have to pace myself. We are retired and don't have bosses any more. We can just take our time, but Sandy can't relax like I can. I'm hanging the hummer feeder March 15. They came around March 20 last year. The males come first and the females follow a couple weeks later. We get a couple hundred hits a day through the summer.(6 feeders). I'm refilling them a couple times a week. You try to get some rest and have a great day. Bill Mitchell
rockybane	Mar 5, 2008 \| 6:55 AM PST Do I ever have a place like that?! Several of them, in fact. I throw all winter and then have a good 1-2 days of work to get it all sorted, thrown away or put away. This year has been extra bad, for some reason. Of course, what limbs have been broken off because of ice storms are still laying everywhere too, that just adds to the mess. I've got some teen age grandkids I'm hoping will help me some this year. It's still too nasty here to do anything, I'm just counting down the days, though!!! :)
