Happy Spring!!!

Happy Spring to All of You!

This is just a sample of some of the new items I'm working on right now.
I work slow and the totes sell fast.
I "guess" that's good,
but Heaven forbid that I make a mistake!
None have hung around long enough to make it to my website -

Our Bradford pears didn't make much of a showing this year.
We had a freeze just as they were about to reach full bloom.

The wild cherries and the redbuds have made up for it.
The dogwoods are late this year.
I guess they're just biding their time until they're sure of the weather.

Signs of Spring!

Above and below are the last shots of our Bradford pears for the year.
They don't last long, but they're so beautiful while we have them!

The tree below is our dwarf peach tree.
It has never born fruit, but we do enjoy the blooms!
Dwarf blueberries are planted at the base.
The berries will be yummy!


Right this minute (7:25 AM) the temperature is a wonderful 48 degrees.
By Thursday, the high is supposed to be 80.
I hate hot weather!

A Country Lane

The greatest joy of this lovely country lane is that it belongs to us.
Our Braford pears are blooming about 2 weeks later than everyone else's.
We planted these trees about 7 years ago, but they are growing beautifully and will, hopefully, be magnificent one of these days.
The ridge across from us has greened up tremendously after these past few warm days.
The grass is growing like mad.
It's time to give up our lazy weekends in front of the fire to start mowing -
as soon as the ground dries up.
The weather man predicts more rain for the next 3 days.
Thursday's temperature is supposed to reach 74 degrees.
