March 25, 2010

Spring arrived last Saturday, March 20th, bringing a warm sunny day. Sunday morning I thought " I'll wear a dress to church." - a good time to wear the new one I recently acquired. All ready to go, I stepped outside. Oh my! It was quite cool and raining as well, but I told myself,  "I'll be alright."  A warm sweater sure would have felt nice.

Spring is hiding all this week

Tom Carroll's crew mowed and trimmed the yard yesterday. I ventured outside after I got home from my dental appointment. I worked in the yard for a while moving some amaryllis.  They were originally from Mother's yard at Mt. Victory, moved to Middlesboro, and now in the yard here in Chattanooga. 

Before I knew it, I found myself busy in the garden area planting lettuce, Bibb, Black Seeded Simpson and Romain. Spinach came through the winter looking good and there are three Swiss Chard plants surviving all in the raised bed. The Sugar-Snap Peas just recently planted are slowly coming up.

When I decided to come in for lunch, it was 3:00PM!

 Mr Carroll said he would get the garden area tilled for me. I think I 'll plant White-Half Runner beans, tomatoes, eggplant, and some onions if I can locate the sets, That will be plenty for me to do.
