The BIG day!

The work on the house that was being done by contracted workers is complete! Hooray! We still have painting to do on the outside trim...but we are doing that ourselves...as we find time. I completed the second coat on the trim around the front door. Then I opened up the blue paint and painted our house numbers and also the little table that we have on the front porch. It was a beautiful day to be outside...but the air is absolutely full of pollen...hope that I don't pay later for being out so much today. After I finished painting, I put the porch back to the way it is supposed to be...and used the dust mop to "try" to get the pollen off the chairs. You should see our cars...they are a green-yellow from all the pollen.

Woody got up a bit later than usual and headed off to work. He worked, walked at lunch, worked some more, and then came home...but not to rest and relax. He had an appointment to take one of our cars in to have some work done on it...so he drove there and then walked home. He has done some work in the yard...and ate the first of the radishes that he planted.

Tonight's picture is the first of our Lilies of the Valley to bloom...we should have lots more blooms as the season progresses...one thing that we don't seem to kill in our yard!
