As we approach the month of May the pace of life grows faster as the dormant winter has ended and new growth begins. This week we have done some gardening. Looking back at last year and the tomato plants that were climbing up the windows, this years production seems pretty tame. We do not intend to get so carried away with gardening this summer, so our projects are more modest. As we surveyed the progress of spring around us, we have photographed a daffodil, a red tulip, the bleeding heart, and buds on the lilac bush. We also have a photo of Portage Lake
without any ice. We have our tomato plants, small but healthy. We have planted cool weather crops in one of the raised beds, and we have a whole bed of lettuce plants enjoying the cool weather. What salads we will
have, despite the snow that fell a couple of days ago. A new season of flowers and gardens is upon us.
