I’m glad your back to posting – I hate seeing a blank page wehn I come for a visit!
Reading about your crocus reminds me tha I should have 3 crocus in the walkway below the fence coming up in a couple of weeks (or more, who knows). Our chipmunks, as did yours, decided that my placement of them wasn’t right. Now if I could figure out what they did with the other 20 or so!
Great sights and sounds of spring at your place. The racoons returning. The lovely crocuses and the other day a robin. No wonder you’re so upbeat and reveling in gardening schemes. Only signal I’ve had that Spring is here was a bothersome, half-drunk, obscene, scuzzy, sleep-inebriated housefly that must have just tumbled out of bed from a crack in one of the window casings. He was no youngster. He knew what a fly swatter was and how to avoid it.
Bogie, I think the chippies use the crocus as food. One year I was so ticked about loosing crocus and tulips that I planted them in metal cages. I’m going to HAVE to dig up those cages, or what’s left of them! *G*
Roberta, that was an inspired description of your resident house fly! We have a moth family that keeps reproducing in our kitchen. I think they were harbored in the birdseed that sat just outside the back door in the garage. All it took was an open door, and one came in to nest. We don’t have many, but there always seems to be one flying around. Defer used to snap at them, but Ed can’t be bothered. You know…..a cat only does what HE pleases!
i managed to dry my washing outside one day this week. you know spring is coming when that happens!
look forward to photos of your carden in full bloom buffy.
Bod, I LOVE line dried sheets! When I was kid we had a lot of laundry line hung in a side yard, and all the sheets were hung to dry. I can remember the crisp feel of the sheets under my feet at night, and they smelled wonderful! That side yard was surrounded by honeysuckle bushes. It’s a lovely memory. Thanks for bringing it to mind.
