All of the hope of spring is now evident in the garden.
Freshly tilled and planted to the brim, it is a glorious
sign of the season.
We rush out to visit it in the morning , cradling
our coffee to warm us against the still cool spring air.
We admire our work and contemplate all of the food we will reap.
This year a real effort for flowers is being made.
A 14ft row of sunflowers has been sowed from last years crop.
Hope. You can feel it in the air.
Baseball season is in full swing.
Saturday morning games are played in the generous sunshine
and Friday night games are cool and leisurely.
No one minds sweating and sun kissed faces. It is all too perfect.
We can't seem to be outside enough.
I hope it is spring in your neck of the woods.
I'll be in the garden.
