Spring is back! It doesn't seem possible that all of the early bloomers are already gone. We had such a very brief time to enjoy them! Now the fruit trees are blooming, and the last of the narcissus, and of course zillions of dandelions. I can't believe that it is almost the first of May, and I only have 2 gardens tidied! We have not even been able to mow the entire farm yet, just spots here and there between rains. We did manage to get the Cottage opened for sales this week since we couldn't work in the gardens. We store all the picnic tables, benches, and fairy garden decor in there over the winter. After we moved all that out, we were able to sweep and unpack boxes. It still need a bit of "decorating", but it will do for now. I hope I can do lots in the gardens this week, but we have standing water everywhere and the ground is soggy, soggy, dripping wet.
