Getting started in 2010

Well, over the w/e some weeds were pulled, some grass seed sowed etc...

Today, mulch around the newly planted tulip area~8 bags of pine mulch (3 for $10--cheap!)

One cube of peat moss was enough...bought two :(
Turned over the garden w/ the p-m and a bag of composted manure...could use more manure...

Bought romaine lettuce, parsly, red onion and some other onions...scalups, white and spanish..all new this year...hoping they are bigger than the walla walla of years past...

damn windy day--took the day off to work in the yard and the rain scrared me...now it is in the 70's/sunny and windy... may plant the buy's later today or over the w/e...

holding off on the canna's and EE's for a week or more...

love this season--thank you Lord for the gift of nature and wonder...
