It's been pleasantly busy around here.

bright yellow iris catch the eye

Spring finally arrived and gardens needed tending.  We are quite happy with our gardens this year, they are filling in nicely. Have had some unexpected and unwanted assistance from the canine contingent, but I think we have recovered.  Planted herbs and peppers on the side of the house.  Love cooking eggs with fresh herbs and produce.

Tomatoes are started but not outside in the ground yet. May just put them into containers on the back deck.  The rain has made everything green but we can't keep the grass mowed!  It is always too wet when Bob is available to mow (I think he has that all planned out).

Replaced the screen doors that blew off during one of the windier storms while we were out of town.  Just in time to let the cool spring breezes air out the house.  Custom Covers came and put up the back deck awning this week, Bob has been taking his breakfast on the deck and we are looking forward to having dinner out there as well.

Friends of our sold their Lewiston house so this week when not busy with guests or B&B business I have been helping them pack up and move items not wanted by the buyers nor themselves.  We have a new rocker recliner in the living room and a new trundle bed in the Bantam Room plus lots of little things (like old candle holders and have crochet afghans for the foot of the beds upstairs.  Spook has been so busy helping with the yard work and supervising all the new items coming into the house that she wore herself out and needed the comfort of my kitty neck pillow.

rest well Spook
