I spent the whoe day workign with Diane in the garden ..We were celibrating our own Mother’s day early  because I am goign to be at my moms in Minneapolia on Sunday. 

It was a great day.. started with a very fast hike around libbys look.. beutiful spring out (yay) Saw our first black  flies (yuck!).. 

 

Marvelled at all the things folks had found on the trail that were still  looking for their owners !

I’m not the gardner in our family.. but it was so fun workign with diane out there .. The big project is building and installing 6 new 4’x8′ rasied beds.. ssembly was easy.. dianess stil got the hard job of gettign them settled in the garden before the dirt comes next monday 

 

One cool thing diane foudn today were these rhubarb flowers. !.. they look other worldly

FInished the day with nice sushi dinner with our good  friend and  former housemate  kyle W.. Had fun tryign to translate the wording inside our cups. 

 

So nice just having a day together.

Quick haircut this morning.. even with little hair.. it still needs cutting. Always love talkign to Deb who cuts my hair.. .. she has a little tribute to sam on her window..

saw my hair clippings next to the previous person(s)..   Quite a color contrast !

When I got home from work today, something inspired me to take a picture of every one of the beutiful flowers diane has in her garden. Not a small task..   I gave up taking pics after 60.. but I think you can get the idea 🙂 

People know our house by Dianes flowers.. (not by our spooky belltower). I think thats so awesome !

Nite all, nite sam

DIane is hard at work prepping for this years garden. SHe’s expanded the back garden by another three  (or is it four) foot strip .. Its so much work for her to weed, till, rearrange.. plant ever year.. the results are always so beautiful. !!!

Today our neighbor carly kept diane company while she worked

 

We found this piece of stone / ceramic in the garden.. must have come from the old pizza oveen that max and diane had made.. it was cool digging up such an artifact
