…Western Manitoba. This picture was taken May 15th near Riding Mountain after receiving 1 foot of snow overnight.
Thankfully Western Massachusetts is having different weather. Today L and I did some gardening. I posted a request for unused garden space on a community board. I had a few offers of “come make a garden out of our lawn”, but someone was willing to let me use a piece of his market garden. The garden is a 15min drive which isn’t ideal, but it seems like a good spot. The garden is also at a higher elevation, so even though the lilacs are blooming it was recommended to me not to put out plants until the 25th of May even here in Massachusetts.
L and I both had a great time playing in the dirt. I have to admit that seeding is the most exciting part, after that comes the work. It will still be good to be outside out of town this summer. L was perfectly content to dig in his big sandbox, look for worms and drop in the occasional seed.
oooh…I’m so excited for you! I cannot believe the snow I’m seeing – CRAZY! Just 2″ of rain at our house…roads impassable (busses won’t come down anymore). Tomorrow I’ll put up pics on flickr for you to see. G’nite!
