It was a tough winter







Lucy reminded me that it was time to update my blog. I still have trouble trying to figure out the spacing of text and pictures. We had a rough winter in New Mexico. We had several days below zero and people who have lived here all their lives said it was the worst winter they had ever seen. We lost a fair amount of plants although Ron is discovering new growth on plants we thought were dead. He is learning a lot about gardening in the southwest and is enjoying learning about the trees that grow here--pears, pecans, almonds, and peaches, in addition to apples. We are looking forward to all that fruit later in the summer.

  1. Laura and I had lunch together and she sang the praises of your wonderful pool. We laughed that there is always something to clog the pool filters...in Olymia it was leaves, bugs, and worms. So, maybe dog hairs aren't so bad!
