• During a break in the rain yesterday afternoon, Speedy came over with some mounding geraniums she had dug up from her garden for me.  I love this kind of geranium and am excited to have it in my perennial bed.  These plants pretty much complete the perennial bed, except for the bulbs we need to put in in the fall.  I am pretty excited about it.

  The geraniums however, were not excited to be moved and pitched quite the fit!

  

  But now the garden is complete until fall.

  

  See the stepping stone Nature Boy made for me ten years ago?

  

  I also was very, very excited to see sprouts in the vegetable garden.  The radishes are up! The amazing thing is that they were not up the day before and then yesterday, they were up and had their little leaves!

  

   

  My peas have sprouted too (as evidenced by a couple that had floated to the top in all the rain). They aren't up out of the ground yet, but if today is sunny as promised, then I expect the peas will pop up.

  Still no robin chicks.

  

   

  And the robin momma is pretty sick and tired of me visiting her nest!

  

  On the agenda for today:  yard sales, nursing my strained ankle (I turned it really hard on a walk last night), enjoying the sun, and who knows what else.  It's Saturday....I don't have much on the agenda.
