April Showers

Clearing the fence line


It was a rainy April, even for these parts.  Our records show 30 inches for the month!  Of course the rain combined with generous sunshine makes things GROW!

Here we find recent woofer handy work clearing the fence line of ferns.  You might pay good money for these in a garden shop back east...but here they are beautiful weeds.

Here are some of the many plants that are blooming this month.  Can you identify them?  Answers at the bottom of this post.

This circular dig is the beginning of a pad for a large water catchment tank.  We've had a lot of rain recently, but we've also had drier than usual months like this past January and February.  So store we must!

Speaking of digging, here is master digger woofer Reggie enjoying some time off.  There is a drawing pad in his lap.
