Wow!
Since my last post an entire week’s gone by…and what a mad dash of a week it was! My oldest son was in town, and he crams more activity in a single day than any other person I know. Take April 12th for example: 10am we’re on the beach; Noon we’re in a restaurant; 2pm we’re racing home to shower/change; 3pm we’re at the Hibiscus Festival; 5pm I’m dropped back home; 6pm he and Maggie drive 2.5hrs across the state to a VIP party (hotel room included!) hosted by a co-worker. Dance til dawn, April 13!
Carpe diem is how he rolls!

Rolling toward Easter Brunch: Carpe Diem!
The entire week was a definite BLAST, but Maggie and I were exhausted by Easter! Nevertheless, we rallied for our new family tradition: celebrating with brunch at the Disney Vero Beach Resort:
Maggie’s fiancé took the above photo, so I returned the favor:
While we were racing around all week, Spring snuck up on my back gardens:
For my beloved Amaryllis, a little slideshow!
It’s looking decidedly like Spring, yeah?
Before I close, a head’s up on something I stumbled across at our Beachside CVS:
I’ve NEVER seen flower bulbs sold at CVS, have you?!? I purchased these on Saturday, and have since hit 3 other CVSs, but couldn’t find them anywhere! (and I scrounged the stores HARD!)
For all you gardeners, “keep an eye peeled” as my Irish Granny was wont to say! You might get lucky, too!
Until next time…..

What a magnificent begonia!
What a beautiful Family you have. And I love seeing spring…the garden here is shutting down for the coming cold months.
I love these family pictures! Your garden is looking lovely, too, Karen…yes, very decidedly Spring-like!
The garden sure looks like spring is there… one busy son you have there…
Finally, Spring is here! And, no, I’ve never seen bulbs sold at CVS. 🙂 Glad you and your son had a great visit!
We had the best time! 🙂 We just learned Jack (my middle son) will be visiting in June! He;s far more laid back but equally fun to have around!
How obliging of that dragonfly to stay put for you.
Yes! It seemed utterly oblivious to me!
Garden update. That’s nice. I’ve just planted a whole lot of stuff on our balcony and I’m looking forward to see what will come of it.
