50 degrees of Sunshine


winter's berries say good-bye



the first lilac smiles springtime



our young Cherry Tree comes to life in its new home


the butterfly bush bursts




hollyhocks begin their climb of seven feet into the sky




the cinquefoil makes a show of itself among the peppermint


the quail make frequent stops - with their calling cards


the chives wave hello
Nice to see you, friend.


the peonies come up for a peek


and the raspberries. the raspberries make their first promise of tasty sweet sunshine
