Spring

Don't you love springtime?  The daffodils are blooming.  The redbuds are beginning to burst forth in beautiful shades of purple.  The trees in our woods are tinged with green.  And we even saw two tiny morel mushrooms pushing their way through the leaves!  What a glorious time of year!

Last fall the Linn Park Garden committee was given 22 daylilies by the Five Acre Dayliliy Farm so we dug up three small garden areas to plant them.  Members of the committee donated tulips and daffodils to help fill in the area.  Yesterday I stopped by to pull a few weeds around the concessions stand.  The tulips were gorgeous with the sun shining through them!  I couldn't resist trying to capture the beauty with my camera.  Of course, it is never the same, but I love having the photo to help me remember.

We will be adding to the beds so that hopefully something will be blooming all summer, but right now it is just exciting to see the beginnings of a beautiful garden!
