~~~ Relaxing after WORKING!!!~~~

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Joe and I spent over 3 hours raking, blowing and hauling leaves on a tarp to the woods today. We are TOO OLD for this:):) When we could barely move, I decided to sit by the pond and snap some pictures. The colors of Spring are all around us now and more to come! This is the hummingbird flag next to the pond.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdusUzsfbXmabUMpv9dcgl1FdZNCDuLhcGT_scDglTnr7lOwnhWTdJVDgdBjNbhzVFgUn3ZwXvEH5h8asgugOspX0dIw4Ux5DzWSw4iX2VtCTvWm4yGbysPOWH-r1kI_F9YBc8T-6nF4ll/s1600/IMG_7061.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240px" j8="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdusUzsfbXmabUMpv9dcgl1FdZNCDuLhcGT_scDglTnr7lOwnhWTdJVDgdBjNbhzVFgUn3ZwXvEH5h8asgugOspX0dIw4Ux5DzWSw4iX2VtCTvWm4yGbysPOWH-r1kI_F9YBc8T-6nF4ll/s320/IMG_7061.JPG" width="320px" /></a></div> I also edged all around the pond and one other bed.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMdFj62X-_NbtdGhc_6T1ZJeL9RZiY5gkriqF0y_8AFyMqIcP6STU2yck1MIeeltXdDvSi-Cbq1Mkz3lv0yVYs5MW_v09weHfb3qTH1hfmvNTOmcLPGimHiERjZQHK1-UzXJZaPgZe14w1/s1600/IMG_7060.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240px" j8="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMdFj62X-_NbtdGhc_6T1ZJeL9RZiY5gkriqF0y_8AFyMqIcP6STU2yck1MIeeltXdDvSi-Cbq1Mkz3lv0yVYs5MW_v09weHfb3qTH1hfmvNTOmcLPGimHiERjZQHK1-UzXJZaPgZe14w1/s320/IMG_7060.JPG" width="320px" /></a></div> Some random shots around the pond.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzxTvHCPZOZ4IqyJXK91w0Hd2d8Bfx8NZb2SDIEpmTZnt8D5ZteYsN1wJbolv_XxkyYUWVaGL8C0qzlsK5fp4R87Ds7hBf8FII8aXnbwmCGKb5P23DSTiO_FKvwjdvsZM90JoHMbP2frej/s1600/IMG_7062.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240px" j8="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzxTvHCPZOZ4IqyJXK91w0Hd2d8Bfx8NZb2SDIEpmTZnt8D5ZteYsN1wJbolv_XxkyYUWVaGL8C0qzlsK5fp4R87Ds7hBf8FII8aXnbwmCGKb5P23DSTiO_FKvwjdvsZM90JoHMbP2frej/s320/IMG_7062.JPG" width="320px" /></a></div> This azalea is bent WAY out of shape searching for the sun!<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQLW4y98ApFJrO-IwI1QsNVxBEnJQYseEX05lckdM6WDO0HAWhYWb6d-kq1s3vbO2_mi4nwuX6boDa4xSvLdQOENAJqD7wMImjL_XYhCzD56Ss_7Q8WyNxvAj09rip8SJ2j861v1q-8I_Z/s1600/IMG_7063.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240px" j8="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQLW4y98ApFJrO-IwI1QsNVxBEnJQYseEX05lckdM6WDO0HAWhYWb6d-kq1s3vbO2_mi4nwuX6boDa4xSvLdQOENAJqD7wMImjL_XYhCzD56Ss_7Q8WyNxvAj09rip8SJ2j861v1q-8I_Z/s320/IMG_7063.JPG" width="320px" /></a></div> The candleabra promroses are blooming now.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_3JJjPA4hB702q6qdln2v3XAaHilFbR2CNgQaxgvY-oP-IivIpJrCLndJagJ8q6hK4gvy4o6mDrsqYUTgjNBB07RH6211VN5locEipJxAQ30-Y0yiJUPPwnILaxdkSUuLrQeXDrvfytcc/s1600/IMG_7064.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240px" j8="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_3JJjPA4hB702q6qdln2v3XAaHilFbR2CNgQaxgvY-oP-IivIpJrCLndJagJ8q6hK4gvy4o6mDrsqYUTgjNBB07RH6211VN5locEipJxAQ30-Y0yiJUPPwnILaxdkSUuLrQeXDrvfytcc/s320/IMG_7064.JPG" width="320px" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjU_ejhM3mL_CVIKwfV7jBYkqdpLbfcZePHFPAAQbYIAhn-dOptoyNBuLRRLX_mEuohRWTv-kYxjiA2WhdbSiGvV9VoZJ8DEttiQt9jdiPaFz5PHPoE6TiUDFmTqDKLaEtZcIEqshoZw3gG/s1600/IMG_7065.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240px" j8="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjU_ejhM3mL_CVIKwfV7jBYkqdpLbfcZePHFPAAQbYIAhn-dOptoyNBuLRRLX_mEuohRWTv-kYxjiA2WhdbSiGvV9VoZJ8DEttiQt9jdiPaFz5PHPoE6TiUDFmTqDKLaEtZcIEqshoZw3gG/s320/IMG_7065.JPG" width="320px" /></a></div> I only have ONE lily of the valley!!!!
