Screech Kitty says Hi!
Today was much warmer, in the 70's and very pleasant. I decided to dedicate the afternoon to working in the greenhouse. I should have worked in the greenhouse this morning, before the sun had a chance to shine in full-strength, because the temperature in there soared to 101 degrees. I filled as many flats with dirt as I could before deciding to wait for Carl to come home to help me put the shade cloth on the greenhouse. The shade cloth will keep temps in the greenhouse down a bit and the plants still do very well. Carl also brought me some more soil less potting mix too, as I was nearly out. So far we have 26 flats planted and growing; tomorrow I hope to plant ten more and I think that will be it for this season. I also want to start some geraniums from cuttings, too.
I put spaghetti and meatballs in the crockpot this morning so we could have a meal ready whenever the time was right. I love my crockpot; without it, I'd be in the kitchen cooking and washing dishes alot more. The spaghetti was pretty good and Dale joined us for supper tonight.
After dishes were done, I headed outside with the camera. It was a bit too late to get great pictures, but I did shoot some photos with and without flash which were rather interesting. Below is a picture of tonight's progress:
I wandered around the yard tonight and took some random pictures of rocks, trees and sunsets.
This is our Nanking Cherry coming into bloom on the lane. Below is a sunset picture of the belvedere in the formal garden.
Pictures taken with and without flash; these pictures were taken on the new west berm.

The end of another beautiful spring day. See you tomorrow. Karen
