I hope everyone had a joyous Easter weekend!

Warmer weather is on the way again... big sigh of relief. I've just been leaving everything covered up the last few days, but I may pull off the pots and boxes for a few hours this afternoon so the plants get a little sun... might not even have to cover up again tonight, as it looks like the forecast is for above-freezing temps. But just in case, perhaps I'll leave the sheet over the Butterfly J Maple one more night....

I think this will be a good week for tilling and moving rocks around... There's a nearby construction site that I've made 5 after-hours trips to so far with the CR-V. I'm not making a dent in the piles of rocks there, but I'm getting a lot of lovely stepping stones! I'm hoping the next time they shove the piles around I'll be able to find a bunch of the longer, more narrow rocks I like for building low walls and borders.

I am loving my new little electric Mantis, as I think you all know by now. :-) It's easy to control, but it bounces enough that between using it and moving those rocks around I think I'll be building up my biceps pretty well!

What is everyone else up to this week, either in or out of the garden?
