sea side home of the eidses

Signs of spring are popping up in various places these days. The rhubarb is poking through the dry leaves and promising tasty desserts in the near future. The second picture shows the tomato plants that Kerry started about a week and a half ago. Germination was good and so we will have too many plants again unless we can actually get ourselves to pull out the excess ones. We planted a variety, but when it comes to eating the tomatoes, we don't really care which is which, we just enjoy. The third picture shows our first meal outdoors this spring. We always look for opportunity to do that, and though the sun was shining warmly, the breeze was enough that we had to wear light jackets. No matter, we still enjoyed. And the last picture shows another typical spring sign on a farm. The equipment comes out and gets worked on and the pressure washer gets started up to was away the winter grime (and bird poop)

getting ready for the flood of 2011

coffee break

We are not in Palm Springs anymore but i will fill in a few weeks before we get to the back home part. After the kids left we started golfing more, aswell as the social life with the others at the southern winter home. We hiked, played tennis, rode the bikes, enjoyed the sun, shopped, ate, walked, had coffee breaks, and played sluff. It was a very good month and we wondered if we would be ready to go home.
