Is it Spring Yet?...........

It seemed pretty warm today, had to be in the 40s. We saw a Robin the other day. We tried to go for a walk down by Kids Creek but still too much snow. That's where we saw the Robin though, enough grass showing for his little beady eye to spot worms. I just can't wait to get back to walking. Although I will at least be walking Cooper to school.

So anyway, the snow is melting in my garden and now we can see patches of dirt and grass and all the mess that now needs to be cleaned up. Yeuk.

When you remember the snow was over the gate last week, it's quite a significant thaw.

The Poodles are loving being able to get out and yap at everyone.


As you see we didn't get much cleaned up in the Fall and so I need to get out and remedy that. I will start now so that I can just do a little at a time and not kill myself.

Bodi can't get down the steps at the moment without help so she sits and watches life go by from the deck. We will be putting in a handicap ramp for her this year.

Boots goes out every chance she gets but doesn't stay long, still too cold for her.

I try to keep Bessie inside. She lays on the bird feeder.
I went to check the pond, that needs some work for sure but both of the fish are there. They have to be about 5 years old now, if not more. There were 4, then a baby, and now just two. So sad.

I must get all those leaves out. There was a net over the pond but Gerry took it off. So now there are a lot of leaves in there. Can you see the Hosta popping up in the next picture? I just can't wait to get to the garden centers.

The driveway is all ice. That will have to be a priority, cleaning that mess up. Gerry is working for a couple of weeks so it will have to me lucky ol me.Never mind, it's outside work and must get done before it gets hot.
