Spring Has Sprung A Leak

And it is okay by me!    A rainy day out the windows  -  brown things are greening or blowing on by.   Tomorrow is supposed to be near 80°  so a little extra moisture after the long cold winter can't hurt a thing. 
On Friday we took an inventory of all the new plantings that wintered over.  Happy to report everything is budding or sending up new leaves and shoots. 
Even the garlic is peeking up.  Expect to have just over 200 bulbs this year.  We had about 17 grafted apple trees make it.  Which leaves plenty of root stock waiting for new scion wood.

    I am T-  the other half -of the dream-wrangler team, in the Orchard adventure.  
    Mother to 3 amazing adult sons, and grandmother to the biggest rays of sunshine in our lives. Our oldest grand-daughter, we used to call "Little A", but now she is medium to tall-sized.  She is "Miss A" now. The last couple of  years she has greeted a brother, "Little R" , and this past fall, "Little Miss I" and another mister, who will be known as "Little K", arriving any day now!

    Then there's H.- I'll let him elaborate at some point,  but in my opinion, he's the best seaweed wrangler west of the Atlantic. He remains our artist. in residence, and contines to astound T with his penchant for unusual garden-type installations.  He lives to dance a jig with his grand kids, and teach them all about gardens, growing and such.
