More flowers blooming this week like this small thorn less climbing rose.




Found a load more logs at the top of the garden so I started the log store extension.

Masters week and the spring flowers are right on time.

The wood shed is now ready for the extension.










The Japanese Wisteria is now in full bloom and it's smell is over powering, shame it strangles trees.




Anne and I took a trip down to our bridge which Anne had not seen yet.

Gardening Day.






















Spent the day in the garden which is growing faster than I can chop it down . Strimmed lots of Periwinkle by the garage and pulled down some vines.






The past few days tree pollen is everywhere on the cars and on the porches, good job we don't have hay fever.






The azaleas are flowering along with Native Wisteria, Dog wood and Crab Apple.






Anne moved all the wood piles up to the wood shed ready to be cut up.

Wood shed full,Tornado warning,and Anne's New Shower




Tuesday night we went shopping to Bi-lo as we arrived home it started raining really hard and the siren in town was going off, not like when the firemen get called out but a steady tone.I joked it was a tornado warning,then turned on the TV to find out it was a Tornado warning. We had three large storm clusters pass through with constant lightning and heavy rain.The roof held up great with no leaks,the drive got a bit washed out and the crawl space got a bit wet.


During the week I surveyed the wiring under the house and finished the woodwork to carry the lighting circuits. in the attic.


The wood shed is now full and I need to build an another.


Today I fitted Anne's New Shower, rail, curtains, so no more baths.
