Crocuses are gone, time for tulips
Rhododendron is blooming in the front yard

Bright red tulips in the front yard too
image

I was surprised to find out that the ground cover in the backyard grows purple flowers
image

These are my favorite tulips
image

And I have a whole back fence of them

my tulips are already shrivelled and waiting for next year. but then that was the Tops variety tulip.
janelle - 04/23/08 22:05
I take no credit for the tulips. They pop up all beautiful on their own.
tinypliny - 04/23/08 20:34
Wow. You must have a really green thumb because the other tulips are not in bloom yet... or are they?

I went to a political rally of a
candidate I don't support....that's what this good wife does for her husband on our anniversary weekend.

Meandering around outside the Lancaster PA train station.

Barack again

Trying to get a picture of Barack coming down the train station stairs.

I wish we had gotten a picture of the people who had train tickets and were departing from the train station. Secret service men were escorting them into the station to the train!

Ugh, if I vote for Cynthia McKinney in November, it will only be to support the Green Party and to promote third party politics. Then I'll go home and wash the icky feeling off of having voted for her. <shudders>

I like Obama, voted for him in the primary. And if he becomes president you'll have a great story to tell. But I think we will both be voting for Cynthia McKinney in November. :)

Ha! You must be a Hillary girl. In that case (e:drew) should have even more reason to count himself lucky, right?

Happy AV to you both. =D

Anyone interested in forming E strip teams for a Buffalo First scavenger hunt in September?

Calling all Gardeners!
Category: garden
I just picked up my organic seeds to grow Cauliflower, Broccoli and Yellow crookneck squash from Urban Roots and planted them in jiffy pots to germinate.

You always get like 200 seeds in each package, and really, I don't need 200 Cauliflower plants no matter how much I love cauliflower...so if some peeps out there would like some seeds, let me know!
fellyconnelly - 04/14/08 07:47
if i had a patch of dirt, i would totally be down with some cauliflower.
jenks - 04/13/08 19:07
barely related- when should I plant tomatoes (from seedlings, not seeds)? Last year I waited waaaay too long.

tinypliny - 04/06/08 20:31
Are these in your backyard???? YOU RULE! Thanks for the delightful photos. I hope the nasty little snow monsters don't come back ever again to Buffalo!

crocuses rule
