I was talking with one of my sisters the other day. She lives at a lower elevation than we do, so Spring has already started to arrive in her area. She sent pictures of daffodils and tulips that are starting to bloom. (These won't hit our area for another month!)

It is getting toward the time of year when I look around and think that gardening may be something that is worth doing. Not only are the blooming flowers and budding shrubs beautiful, but it is always great to eat our homegrown food in the fall. (My perpetual problem is that I think about how great gardening would be, but then I seldom take the steps to do it. Still, fresh fall food is awesome!)
