Fresh Soil & Sun


This is how it begins, and I relish every moment. Spring is here!


One garden bed now has freshly turned soil. I enjoyed the back breaking work of handling the old garden tools just to breathe in the alive scent of soil being awoken after winter's rest.


The above daffodils remain welcome intruders in my vegetable garden, until they bloom this spring and are moved elsewhere. Previous homeowners planted hundreds and hundreds of daffodils. Glorious! I do nothing and they transform my yards all on their own.
The bark mulch needs to be fluffed and weed fabric tucked in at spots, but isn't the green growth promising and exciting?

There is nothing that speaks sun and sweet smelling spring to me more than clothes on the line.


Welcome back, Spring! You've been missed.

  1. I agree about the clothes on the line. We line dry our clothes too, and there's just nothing quite like the smell of sunshine captured in your clothes!
    I'm glad to hear of a fellow cloth diaperer too.
