lots of showers today

The past few days of warm weather have allowed the firsts of Spring to bloom. Crocuses, daffodils and forsythia trees are scattered around in splashes of purple and yellow. I blame the squirrels for some of the splashes of color I see in odd places. Many times they will dig up the bulbs and bury them somewhere else.
The maple trees in our yard have big buds on them as well as the Dogwood trees.
Today it has been raining and raining hard. Almost everything has gotten a soaking. Mike is waiting until tomorrow to put down the organic fertilizer. I am thinking I may pay a visit to the huge gardens across the road in Bellevue State Park to get some ideas on composting.
