Morning In The Garden

The weather here in Kansas 

has been strange this spring.

Last weekend we had temperatures 

in the triple digits with high winds.

Not good conditions for painting the house.

The last couple of days we've been 

waking up to temperatures 

below 50 and it never got much 

above 60 in the afternoons.

Definitely not usual weather for this area.

Wind has been a real problem

but one day last week

we finally got good enough

weather to go back to painting.

We didn't get much done as hubby's

knee has been very sore

and he was waiting to have

surgery which he finally

had yesterday.

If you look closely at the photo above

you'll notice all the little green things in the dirt.

It's elm tree seeds that have sprouted.

They're everywhere!

It seems every so many years elm trees

have more seeds than usual and this year 

seems to be the year for ours.

:(

Looking forward to the flowers 

and greenery spilling out of the 

baskets on the bike.

I hope your weather has been better 

than ours

and I hope you have a 

wonderful weekend

doing something fun! 

Maura :)
