The First Day of Spring

The beds around our house are spectacular this morning. Bernie hired Dex and Spencer to help him make the beds clean and beautiful. What a pleasant sight when you look out the window on the first day of spring.

I got out my jounal labeled "Ideas for Gardens 2008". What I have learned since 2008 is how overwhelming our beds are to me. 2011 will be a year to enjoy what is here: the plants that are tough enough to survive the overwhelmingness of nature here in Country Oaks.

Taking in a morning walk,
watching the sun rise on the day when there are equal hours of daylight and dark,
feasting my eyes on these beautiful garden beds when I return home,
Feeling a part of all that surrounds me.
The first day of spring.
